IDF: "We have completely shut down the airport in Sanaa"

After the IDF Spokesperson in Arabic, Avichai Edrei, issued evacuation warnings for the area of the international airport in Sana'a, the capital of Yemen, today (Tuesday), it is now reported that the air force has begun attacking in the area.

The IDF has now confirmed the Sanaa's airport has been completely shut down.

IDF: "We will continue to act and strike forcefully at anyone who poses a threat to the residents of the State of Israel, and at any distance necessary".

The IDF Spokesperson said: "This is an urgent warning to all those present in the area of Sana'a International Airport, as shown on the attached map," Edrei wrote. "We urge you to evacuate the airport area immediately, and to warn everyone in your vicinity of the need to evacuate this area immediately. Failure to evacuate and move away from the place exposes you to danger."

Senior Houthi official Mohammed Al-Buhaithi responded to the attack in Sana'a in an interview with Qatar's Al-Arabi TV: "Escalation will be met with escalation. Our campaign with the United States, Britain and Israel will continue until the aggression in Gaza stops. We have many sites of Israel that we have not yet attacked."
