This morning, a ballistic missile fired by Houthis in Yemen, struck Ben Gurion Airport in Israel.
A crater 25 Meters Deep was made by the impact and detonation, indicating a massive explosion and indicating the missile was flying at tremendous speed.
This region is one of the most highly protected areas on this planet, yet the missile got through.
Attempts were made by Israel to shoot down the missile with both the Israeli "Arrow" and the U.S. supplied 'THAAD" but both systems missed the incoming missile.
At present, it is not known what building within the airport may have been the final target. The missile landed and detonated on a roadway at the airport.
While injuries and deaths seem unlikely, there is a single report of an injury from the impact.
The Houthis in Yemen have been firing missiles at Israel over the Genocide being carried out by the Israeli government in the Gaza Strip.
Yemen says they will continue to fire missiles into Israel, and attack ships on the Red Sea traveling to or from Israel, as a sort of naval blockade of Israel, until the Genocide stops.
The United States has been attacking Yemen with the intention of brining attacks on ships to a halt, but the US effort has not achieved its goal.
