Israeli army admits interception failure, injuries reported near Terminal 3

Israeli authorities suspended all flights at Ben Gurion Airport on Sunday after a missile launched from Yemen struck near the facility.

Israel's emergency service, Magen David Adom, reported that “several people sustained minor injuries due to a missile falling near Terminal 3 at Ben Gurion Airport,” without providing further details.

The strike occurred following multiple air raid sirens in various regions of Israel and several unsuccessful attempts to intercept the projectile, according to the Israeli army.

According to Channel 13, the military has launched an internal probe into the failure of the air defense systems to intercept the missile.

This marked the third such missile launch in two days following earlier Houthi claims of targeting Ramat David Airbase and the Tel Aviv region.
