Israel: Israel closed the Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv after a missile launch from Yemen was detected, according to Israeli Channel 12. Sirens were heard across central regions, including Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, and surrounding areas, the Israeli public broadcaster KAN reported.

According to Anadolu Agency, the Israeli army confirmed the detection of a missile launched from the direction of Yemen. The emergency service stated that several people sustained minor injuries while trying to reach shelters following the missile launch, in addition to multiple cases of panic.

The Yemeni Houthi group announced it "successfully" targeted the Ben Gurion Airport with a hypersonic ballistic missile, according to group spokesperson Yahya Saree. The Houthis have been targeting ships passing through the Red and Arabian seas, the Bab al-Mandab Strait, and the Gulf of Aden since November 2023 in solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, where more than 53,000 victims have been killed in an Israeli assault for over 19 months, most of them women and children.

The group halted attacks when a Gaza ceasefire was declared in January between Israel and the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas, but resumed them after Israel's renewed airstrikes on Gaza in March.

Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi announced a ceasefire on May 6 between the Houthi group and the US, shortly after President Donald Trump said the group agreed to halt attacks on commercial ships. However, the Houthis confirmed the ceasefire with Washington but stated it has no relation to its confrontation with Israel in support of the Palestinian people.
