Houthi missile attack at Ben Gurion airport

Thank God this missile didn’t hit a plane at the gate, then easily killing over 100 people.

The rebels have been firing ballistic missiles at Israel for some time now; but the IDF appears to have missed intercepting this one.

Every strike from the Houthis should be met with a retaliatory strike sufficient to degrade their ability to strike outside of Yemen. They were a tool to oppose Saudi Arabia, but have now been let loose. And they’ve already been put on notice by both Israel and the US that port infrastructure is not off limits.

Tehran did not directly attack Israel. So Israel should focus on debilitating the proxy.

Addendum: this is the crater in today’s DT!
