Robot attack at Israel's largest airport
A rocket hit a road next to Israel's largest airport outside Tel Aviv on Sunday. Six people were slightly injured, according to Israeli media. Air traffic was completely halted for about an hour and several major airlines are now canceling flights.
The Houthi movement from Yemen has claimed responsibility for the attack and says in a statement that the attack shows their capacity to strike Israel. Israel promises to strike back "seven times harder".
During the night of Saturday, Israel stated that it had shot down a rocket fired from Yemen. Three days ago, Israel shot down two other rockets within half a day.
The Iran-backed Houthi movement has repeatedly attacked Israel with rockets and drones. According to the Houthis, the attacks are being carried out in solidarity with the Palestinians in the heavily war-torn Gaza Strip.
