Yemen Carries out Fresh Missile Strike on Israeli Airport

Al Manar13 hours ago

Yemeni Armed Forces staged late on Thursday a new attack targeting Israeli Ben Gurion Airport with a hypersonic ballistic missile in support of Palestine and in response to the occupation regime's genocidal war in the besieged Gaza Strip.
In a statement, Yemeni Armed Forces Spokesman Brigadier Yahya Saree announced that Lod airport in occupied Jaffa was targeted with a 'Palestine-2' hypersonic ballistic missile, referring to the original name of the occupied Palestinian area.
'The operation successfully achieved its goal, thanks to Allah, forcing millions of Zionists to flee to shelters and halting air traffic at the airport,' he added.

The spokesman reiterated that the Yemeni armed forces will continue their operations against the Zionist entity until the aggression against Gaza stops, and its siege is lifted.
Sirens wailed in central occupied territories due to the missile launch, Israeli media reported.
For its part, the Israeli occupation army claimed to have intercepted the Yemeni missile.
'Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago in several areas in Israel, a missile launched from Yemen was intercepted,' the army said in a statement.
The video below, circulated on social media showed sirens sounding in the occupied territories due to the Yemeni missile launch.
Yemen's revolutionaries have repeatedly launched missiles and drones at the Zionist entity since the Israeli war on Gaza began in October 2023.
The occupation army has now reported similar launches on at least five of the past seven days.

EU chief backs ICC after US sanctions judges over Netanyahu warrant

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has reiterated European backing for the International Criminal Court, after the US slapped sanctions on four judges it accuses of 'illegitimate and baseless actions' against Washington and its allies, including Israel. 'The Commission fully supports the [ICC and] its officials. The ICC holds perpetrators of the world's gravest crimes to account [and] gives victims a voice,' the European Commission chief posted on X. 'It must be free to act without pressure. We will always stand for global justice [and] the respect of international law.' On Thursday, the Trump administration followed through on a threat to sanction officials associated with the court, issuing sanctions against four judges. Two of the judges, Reine Alapini-Gansou of Benin and Beti Hohler of Slovenia, were sanctioned for their role in the ICC issuing arrest warrants for Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant in November, according to the US State Department.

The European Union strongly supports the International Criminal Court, European Council Antonio Costa said on Friday, adding that it is "a cornerstone of international justice". His comments came a day after President Donald Trump's administration imposed sanctions on four judges at the International Criminal Court, an unprecedented retaliation over the war tribunal's issuance of an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and a past decision to open a case into alleged war crimes by U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
