ALBAWABA- A ballistic missile launched from Yemen on Monday prompted the temporary closure of airspace over Ben Gurion Airport in central Israel, according to Israeli Army Radio.
The Israeli military claimed the missile was intercepted before reaching its target, falling outside Israeli airspace.
The incident unfolded just hours after the Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, published a letter from the Chief of Staff of Yemen’s Ansar Allah movement (the Houthis).
In the message, Houthi-run military leadership expressed solidarity with the Palestinian resistance, affirming its alignment with Gaza and support for ongoing efforts to break the Israeli siege.
Mohammed Al-Ghomari, Chief of General Staff of Yemen’s Houthi movement, declared that the Yemeni people, army, and leadership will remain firmly engaged on the battlefield in support of Gaza.
In a tone steeped in revolutionary unity, the Houthi Chief of Staff hailed the Qassam Brigades and confirmed that Yemen remains committed to challenging Israeli aggression.
He praised the Qassam Brigades' operations as a source of inspiration for freedom-seeking people worldwide, adding: “Gaza has become a symbol of pride and resilience, and as long as fighters like Al-Qassam exist, it will never be broken.”
