Rebels in Yemen launched attacks on Israel’s Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv and a US aircraft carrier in the Red Sea.

Yahya Seri, the Military Spokesperson for the Husilers, stated, “We targeted Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport in the occupied Palestinian region of Jaffa with a ‘Palestine-2’ hypersonic ballistic missile, and the operation was successfully carried out.”

Seri also mentioned that they continued to resist US attacks, targeting enemy warships including the US aircraft carrier ‘USS Harry Truman’ and its accompanying vessels in the Red Sea. He claimed that clashes with American ships in the Red Sea involved missile and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) attacks that lasted for hours.

Emphasizing their support for the resistance of the Palestinian people and their intention to target Israeli maritime transport until attacks on Gaza cease, Seri confirmed that operations would continue. While the US has not commented on the matter, the Israeli military had announced the interception of a ballistic missile fired from Yemen before entering the country’s borders through air defense systems.

On March 7, the Husilers had warned of renewed maritime operations against Israel if access to Gaza aid shipments was not granted within four days. President Donald Trump had instructed a “major attack” on the Husilers in Yemen from his Truth Social platform account on March 15. Husilers’ leader Abdulmelik al-Husi had declared that American aircraft and warships would be their targets, warning of disruptions in sea operations involving Washington as long as the attacks continued. The rebels had reported the deaths of at least 53 people and injuries to 107 in air strikes on cities between the Yemeni capital Sana’a and the capitals of the US and the UK.
