Israel's Ben Gurion Airport attack leaves 8 injured.
In a significant development, Israel's Ben Gurion Airport was targeted by a missile launched from Yemen, resulting in eight injured individuals. The incident occurred on May 4, 2025, and underscores the escalating tensions in the region [1].The missile attack, which was intercepted by the Israeli Air Force before it could cause significant damage, has sparked international concern. The Israeli military reported that sirens were sounded across several areas, including Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, following the incident [1].
The attack comes amid a backdrop of increased hostilities between Israel and the Houthis, a Yemeni militant group. The Houthis have been carrying out attacks against Israel in response to U.S. airstrikes targeting their positions. The U.S. has been conducting airstrikes in Yemen since April 2025, aiming to deter the Houthis from attacking military and commercial vessels in the Red Sea [1].
The incident at Ben Gurion Airport is the latest in a series of attacks targeting Israeli infrastructure. In late 2023, the Houthis have carried out over 100 attacks on shipping, disrupting global commerce and prompting the U.S. military to launch a costly campaign to intercept missiles [1].
The Israeli government has condemned the attack and has called for a de-escalation of tensions. However, the Houthis have vowed to escalate their attacks, including those targeting Israel, in retaliation for renewed Israeli airstrikes in Gaza [1].
The attack at Ben Gurion Airport has raised concerns about the security of the region and the potential for further escalation. The incident highlights the need for diplomatic efforts to resolve the ongoing conflicts and prevent future attacks.
