With its decision to ban air navigation to the Israeli occupation, Yemen has closed its last outlets. What does Ben Gurion Airport mean to the Israeli occupation, and what are the implications of Yemen’s latest decision?
Exclusive – Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni:
After a series of missile attacks that exceeded 3 within two days, Yemen officially announced, through the spokesman of its forces, a ban on air navigation to the occupied cities in Palestine, thus imposing a siege on the occupation by air and sea.
For the occupation, the Ben Gurion International Airport, which is now at the top of the Yemeni target list, is an important air outlet, as more than 25 million passengers travel through it annually, generating hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue for the occupation, and it is one of the few airports in the Middle East.
The airport was not purely civilian but housed the largest Zionist industrial companies, from space and military sciences to missile tests, and within it a huge military complex for the Israeli military manufacturing company.
Regardless of what the airport contains, questions are currently being raised about the implications of Yemen’s decision to close navigation to it.
In fact, the airport has experienced a significant decline in its activity since the start of Yemeni operations and others by the resistance in Palestine, Iraq, Lebanon, and Iran against it about a year ago, as the majority of global companies continue to avoid traveling to it for months, while others are still scheduling their flights to the coming weeks in the hope that the situation will calm down.
Now that Yemen has decided to ban air navigation to it, all airlines have stopped automatically and without targeting, so there is no airline around the world, no matter how loyal it is to the occupation, willing to risk its reputation or bear the costs of dozens of victims falling in the repeated and unspecified attacks.
In fact, the ban decision has been automatic since the moment a Yemeni missile fell on the airport in its new phase, as the airport’s data shows a near-total paralysis of the airport despite Zionist attempts to reassure companies. With this decision, Yemen has effectively imposed a siege on the occupation by air and sea, as the airport was receiving dozens of shipments of goods and materials that were being transported by air due to the difficulty of reaching them by sea as a result of Yemeni surveillance of its ships at the Bab Al-Mandeb strait.
The damage of the Yemeni air siege will not only be economic for the occupation and the deterioration of the airport’s reputation, in addition to the material damage that may affect it, but will also include other aspects, most notably the transfer of food and consumer goods to the occupation, which it was compensating by air, which may reinforce the pressure on the occupation to stop its new aggression on Gaza.
