Magen David Adom said six Israelis were 'physically hurt' in the missile attack.
Airport temporarily halted takeoffs and landings following the detection of the launch of the missile.
'An investigation is underway regarding the impact at the Ben Gurion Airport area. As per normal procedure, there is a freeze and no landings or takeoffs are taking place,' the Israel Airport Authority said in a statement.
'Yemen Demonstrated Capabilities'
Yemeni Armed Forces have yet to release a statement over the missile strike.
Meanwhile, Mohammad Al-Bukhaiti, a senior official in Yemen's Ansarullah revolutionary movement, told the Qatari Al-Araby TV channel that the Yemenis demonstrated their ability to strike sensitive targets in the Zionist entity.
He stressed that the group has 'no red lines' in its fight against the occupation regime in support of the oppressed Palestinian people in Gaza.
Airlines Halt Flights
On the other hand, German carrier Lufthansa and Spanish airline Air Europa halted flights to and from Tel Aviv on Sunday after the missile strike.
The Lufthansa group, whose carriers also include SWISS, Austrian Airlines and Brussels Airlines, cancels all flights to and from Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport scheduled for Sunday, according to its website.

Israel says retrieved body of Thai hostage from Gaza
by Naharnet Newsdesk 11 hours Israeli forces have retrieved from the Gaza Strip the body of Natthapong Pinta, a Thai taken hostage during Hamas' October 7, 2023 attack, officials said Saturday. A military statement said the army and the Shin Bet security agency carried out an operation on Friday and "recovered the body of Natthapong Pinta from the Rafah area" in southern Gaza. "Nattaphong Pinta was abducted alive by terrorists... from Kibbutz Nir Oz on October 7, 2023, and was murdered while in captivity," the statement alleged, blaming the Mujahideen Brigades, an armed group close to Hamas ally Islamic Jihad. Defense Minister Israel Katz said in a statement that the hostage's body was "returned to Israel" in "a special operation" in the Rafah area. "Natthapong came to Israel from Thailand to work in agriculture, out of a desire to build a better future for himself and his family," Katz said. He was "brutally murdered in captivity by the terrorist organization Mujahideen Brigades", the minister charged. The military statement alleged that the militant group which stormed Nir Oz during Hamas' 2023 attack was to blame for the deaths of several other hostages. "The murderous Mujahideen terrorist organization abducted, held and murdered Shiri, Ariel and Kfir Bibas, whose bodies were returned as part of the last hostage deal, as well as the bodies of Gad Haggai and Judi Lynn Weinstein, which were returned earlier this week," the statement said. "The Mujahideen terrorist organization has also murdered and is holding the body of another foreign national," it added. The statement said Natthapong's family and Thai officials had been notified of the operation to recover his body. According to the Nir Oz community, 117 residents were killed and more than 60 percent of its houses destroyed during the attack.
