The Houthis announced an aerial blockade on Ben-Gurion Airport and threatened any airlines that fly to Israel.

The Houthis warned major airlines against flying to Israel on Saturday.

“After the success of our Yemeni Armed Forces in cutting off Israeli shipping in the Red Sea, a blockade is imposed on Ben-Gurion Airport in occupied Palestine,” the group said on X/Twitter.

The announcement comes after the Yemeni organization fired multiple ballistic missiles toward Israel in the past week.

The Houthis targeted Jerusalem with missiles for the third time in two months on Friday.
