Yemen's Houthis say fired missile at Israel's Ben Gurion Airport

Yemen's Houthis rebels said they fired a missile at Israel's Ben Gurion Airport Saturday, hoping to hit it as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived back from a visit to New York.

"The missile force [...] carried out an operation targeting [...] 'Ben Gurion' [...] Airport," the Iran-backed group said in a statement, adding it had named the missile "Palestine 2."

The Israeli military said earlier that it intercepted a missile fired from Yemen that triggered air raid sirens in the centre of the country.
