A Yemeni one‑way attack drone struck Israel's Ramon Airport, north of Eilat, on Sunday. Yemen has not issued a statement regarding the operation or its details. According to Hebrew-language media, there have been reports of multiple injuries following the strike.

The Israeli military confirmed the impact and acknowledged that no sirens sounded before the strike, prompting the closure of southern airspace and diversion of flights to Ben Gurion Airport.

The military also claimed it intercepted three other drones launched from Yemen shortly before the hit, underscoring a widening front that has increasingly stressed Israel’s air defenses.

Yemen’s Ansarullah movement has targeted Israel since autumn 2023 in solidarity with Gaza, stepping up long‑range drone and missile operations despite repeated reprisals.

Israel has struck Yemen, bombing Hodeidah port and killing senior leaders and civilians, with Yemeni leaders vowing revenge and continued support for Gaza. In May, a Yemeni missile near Ben Gurion Airport disrupted Israeli air travel for months.
