The Houthis announced an aerial blockade on Ben-Gurion Airport and threatened any airlines that fly to Israel.
The Houthis announced a blockade on Ben-Gurion Airport and warned major airlines against flying to Israel on Saturday.

“After the success of our Yemeni Armed Forces in cutting off Israeli shipping in the Red Sea, a blockade is imposed on Ben-Gurion Airport in occupied Palestine,” the group said on X/Twitter.

The announcement comes after the Yemeni terrorist organization fired multiple ballistic missiles toward Israel in the past week.

The Houthis targeted Jerusalem with missiles for the third time in two months on Friday.
Red alert sirens sounded across Israel from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv’s surrounding suburbs due to a ballistic missile that was fired from Yemen Friday night.
The Houthis warned Lufthansa, Turkish Airlines, Air France, British Airways, United Airlines, and easyJet against flying to Israel for “everyone’s safety.”

Houthis target Ben-Gurion Airport
The organization wrote that any other airlines flying to Ben-Gurion Airport would also be targeted.

“Please take the decision of the Yemeni Armed Forces seriously, as Ben-Gurion Airport is no longer safe until the aggression on Gaza stops,” the statement read.
The group’s military spokesman has also said, without providing evidence, that the Houthis had launched attacks against the US aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman in the Red Sea.
According to reports by the Associated Press and Politico citing US officials, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said he will send a second aircraft carrier to accompany it in the Middle East region.

The second one will reportedly be the USS Carl Vinson, which had been based in the Pacific Ocean, the report said.

The Associated Press cited the official saying the defense secretary ordered the Truman to remain in the Middle East for at least another month, as it was initially supposed to return to Virginia at the end of March. The report also said the Vinson was expected to arrive in the region next month.
The Vinson moving to accompany the Truman would be the second time that two carrier ships would be stationed in the Middle East in the past six months, the report noted. Before moving toward the Middle East, it was conducting exercises with South Korean and Japanese forces, according to the report.

“The minute the Houthis say, ‘We’ll stop shooting at your ships, [and] we’ll stop shooting at your drones,’ this campaign will end, but until then, it will be unrelenting,” Hegseth said earlier this week, adding that the airstrikes are to get the Islamic Republic of Iran’s attention, according to a US Department of Defense statement.

Double blockade now. They are about to have Israel on 100% Lock-down

Sea route blocked

Now

Only Airport blocked.


Two Options-

1-Invading Yemen and forcing a regime change. (This is a war whose outcome cannot be predicted)
2-Stop the genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza. (This is the easier more practical route)

Chimarto:
Hezbollah tried and they were gone, so sad that there's no one to advise Houthis.

Enwhen:
Dey naija dey play
You think say Israel na APC and PDP analysis
Raphael go release one air system now , Houthis and Yemen go look foolish to you wey dey believe them
Technology no be Cho Cho Cho o
US and Israel spend billions of dollars on it

You don’t beat guerilla warfare with brute force. The US, Israel, and coalition forces have been bombing the Houthis for over 2–3 years—and it’s not working.

The Houthis only need 10–15 men, 30 minutes, and a missile. They vanish back into the mountains before a drone can even lock on.
You can’t bomb every hill, and for every fighter killed on Monday, another is ready by Tuesday.

Fighting them is like trying to kill a bee on your testicles with a shotgun.
You may hit the bee—but you destroy yourself in the process.

The only path forward is dialogue. Otherwise, this war becomes an endless loop of pain and waste.

What happened to Hezbollah? It's dead, they are past tense. Don't confuse war with nation-building. The USA were into nation-building and entrenching democracy and not war in Iraq and Afghanistan. The pattern of warfare has changed. Just bomb them into oblivion without a foot on the ground. US wins.

Calling bombing “nation-building” is like calling a chainsaw a comb.

Civilian planes will stop flying to Ben Gurion with this kind of threat.
There is also cost consideration in warfare , if you are using billions of dollars to fight someone with catapult.
The catapult guy is winning. Why haven't they deployed all the billion dollar stuff in 3 years of the Houthis bullying them in the red sea and now the airport ?
