Spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces Yahya Saree has announced a new military operation against Israel's Ben Gurion International Airport in response to the regime's war on Gaza.

Saree made the announcement on Sunday, saying that Ben Gurion, which is Israel's busiest airport located near Tel Aviv, was struck with a hypersonic ballistic missile earlier in the day.

According to the spokesperson, the missile operation was fully successful, halted flights at the airport, and sent residents of Tel Aviv to shelters.

As long as the Israeli regime continues its attacks on Gaza and maintains its siege there, Yemen will continue its military operation against the regime's positions, Saree said, emphasizing that the Yemeni Armed Forces are prepared for any developments in the coming days.

Yemen has in the past several months repeatedly struck Ben Gurion Airport with missiles, as part of its retaliatory response to Israel's aggression against Palestinians in Gaza. The response has also featured maritime operations in the Red Sea against Israel-linked vessels. Yemen has continued its operations in support of Gaza despite intense airstrikes by Israel and the United States against the Arab country.
