Air activity at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, occupied Palestine, has
been completely halted amid the sounding of sirens as a result of a rocket
launch coming from Yemen on Sunday morning, Israeli *Channel 12* reported.

Sirens had blasted in central occupied Palestine, including Tel Aviv and
occupied al-Quds, according to the Israeli military, which claimed that the
missile was intercepted.

This was the fifth missile operation carried out by Yemen targeting
"Israel" this week, Israeli media noted.

The Yemeni Armed Forces had previously emphasized that Ben Gurion Airport
is no longer safe

air traffic, warning that it will remain a target until the Israeli war on
Gaza ends.

On March 18, the leader of the Ansar Allah Yemeni Resistance movement, Sayyed
Abdul-Malik al-Houthi
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/sayyed-al-houthi-says-yemen-to-resume-gaza-support-at-highes>,
stressed
that "the Yemeni armed forces will resume their escalation at the highest
levels against the occupation," directly addressing the Palestinian people:
"You are not alone."

Sayyed Al-Houthi underscored that "there is no alternative to bearing
responsibility in confronting and resisting the Israeli enemy," warning
that "if Israel succeeds in eliminating the Palestinian cause, it will
expand its crimes to other countries without any restraint."

Sayyed al-Houthi emphasized that "there are no longer any red lines,"
warning that "the occupation has shown no regard for any considerations as
it carries out genocide, total destruction, and horrific killings."

Yemen has relentlessly backed Gaza, its Resistance, and its people, against
the Israeli aggression, and continued monitoring the progress of
negotiations and the ceasefire. When "Israel" blocked humanitarian aid
entries into Gaza and refused to engage in the second phase of
negotiations, Yemen re-established the naval ban on shipments sailing to
occupied Palestinian ports.

As a result, the United States and the United Kingdom renewed their
aggression on Sanaa

mostly targeting civilian infrastructure and civilians.
