Yemen Revolutionaries Declare Israeli Airports 'Unsafe' as Ballistic Missiles Target Ben Gurion
Deputy Head of Ansarullah Media Authority Nasr Al-Din Amer declared that 'all airports in occupied Palestine are unsafe,' calling on all airlines to suspend their flights to airports in Palestine 'to protect the safety of their passengers.'
He stressed that the Yemeni retaliatory strikes on the occupied territories would persist and escalate 'until the aggression ends and the siege on Gaza is lifted.'
'We will impose a no-fly zone on all airports in occupied Palestine in response to the escalation in Gaza,' the Ansarullah official said.
'The Zionists neither heard the Arab Summit nor care about it. The only heard voice now is the sound of explosions in the Zionist depth and this is the language which this entity understands.'
2 Ballistic Missiles Target Ben Gurion
Meanwhile on Sunday, the Yemeni Armed Forces announced they has launched two ballistic missiles toward the occupied territories that targeted Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, threatening to escalate retaliatory operations.
'The missile force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a qualitative military operation targeting Lod Airport, Israeli named 'Ben Gurion' Airport, in the occupied area of Yaffa, using two ballistic missiles, one of which was a hypersonic 'Palestine-2' missile and the other a 'Zulfiqar' missile,' Yemeni military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree said in a statement.

'The operation successfully achieved its goal, thanks to Allah, and caused millions of occupying Zionists to rush to shelters, and air traffic at the airport to stop for about an hour.'
Stressing that the anti-Israel operation was in support of the oppressed Palestinian people and in rejection of the crime of genocide perpetrated by the Zionist regime in the Gaza Strip, Saree called on the Muslim world to mobilize to stand against the illegal entity.
Sirens Sound
Earlier before dawn on Sunday, sirens sounded in the Zionist entity's center, including in Tel Aviv and the surrounding areas, Israeli media reported.
The Israeli occupation military claimed it had intercepted the missile.
'The missile was detected and neutralized by aerial defense systems shortly after launch, which was initially reported at 1:57 a.m. on Sunday,' the Israeli occupation army said, as quoted by Israeli media.

'No party can eliminate another party in Lebanon and no sect has an advantage over another. The latest Israeli war targeted entire Lebanon, while the economic war has not been merciful on any of its sons,' Aoun said. Warning of 'the enemies within the country who incite sectarianism out of keenness on their interests with foreign forces,' the president said 'coordination is well underway with the Syrian side to prevent cross-border smuggling.'

Efforts ongoing to halt Gaza war
by Naharnet Newsdesk 04 July 2025, 16:34 "We'll see what happens. We're going to know over the next 24 hours," U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters on Air Force One late Thursday when asked if Hamas had agreed to the latest framework for a ceasefire. Hamas said Friday that it was holding discussions with leaders of other Palestinian factions to discuss a ceasefire proposal presented to it by Egyptian and Qatari mediators. Hamas said it will give its final response to mediators after the discussions have concluded. Trump said Tuesday that Israel had agreed on terms for a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza and urged Hamas to accept the deal before conditions worsen. The Health Ministry in Gaza said the number of Palestinians killed in the territory has passed 57,000. The ministry does not differentiate between civilians and combatants in its count, but says more than half of the dead are women and children. The war began when Hamas-led militants attacked southern Israel, killing 1,200 people and taking roughly 250 hostages. According to Palestinian witnesses and Gaza's Health Ministry, several hundred people have been killed or wounded by Israeli troops when trying to reach the aid sites since they opened in May. The military has repeatedly said it's fired only warning shots, denies deliberately firing towards civilians, and says it's looking into reports of civilian harm.
