A rocket struck Ben Gurion Airport on Wednesday, leading to a halt in air
traffic, Israeli media reported.

flights. Yedioth Ahronoth also confirmed the strike, saying the rocket landed
within the airport’s premises.
No Immediate
details were available on potential casualties or damage.

October, Israel’s Aviation Authority briefly halted and then resumed takeoffs
at the airport following escalation with Hezbollah in Lebanon.

before, the Yemeni Ansarallah fired a ballistic missile landed near
Ben Gurion, and injured nine people.
Notably,
many international airways suspended flights to Tel Aviv due to the security
situation.
