Houthis Claim Cluster Missile Strike on Ben Gurion International Airport

Yemen's Houthi movement (Ansar Allah) claimed responsibility for a cluster missile strike targeting Ben Gurion International Airport near Tel Aviv — a significant escalation in Houthi regional strike operations. The attack, if confirmed, marks the use of cluster munitions against a major international civilian aviation hub. Houthi strikes on Israeli territory have occurred periodically since the Iran conflict began, but targeting Ben Gurion Airport with cluster weapons represents an intensification of their declared solidarity campaign with Iran. Israeli air defenses were placed on high alert; damage and interception status remain unconfirmed at time of report.
