The economic damage from the Houthis’ ongoing attacks on Israel’s Ben Gurion International Airport remains significant, the country’s Channel 12 broadcaster reports.

About 20 international airlines have suspended flights because of repeated targeting of the airport by Yemen’s Houthi militia and some are reportedly seeking compensation.

“I think we’re running out of patience too with Israel,” Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary said last week. “Flights to and from Tel Aviv, if they’re going to keep being disrupted by these security disruptions, frankly, we’d be better off sending those aircraft somewhere else in Europe.”

I've only heard about the one attack on Ben Gurion. How many more have there been?

At least 34 since Israel broke the ceasefire But one confirmed impact which used a special missile. Most use standard missiles which cost more to intercept than to fire.
