Yemen’s Houthis said they fired a missile at Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport Saturday, hoping to hit it as Prime Minister Benjmain Netanyahu arrived back from a visit to New York.

“The missile force... carried out an operation targeting... ‘Ben Gurion’... Airport,” the Iran-backed group said in a statement, adding it had named the missile “Palestine 2.”

The Israeli military said earlier that it intercepted a missile fired from Yemen that triggered air raid sirens in the center of the country.
