Occupied Quds – SABA:
The aviation crisis is tightening its grip on the Zionist entity day after day due to the air blockade imposed by the Yemeni Armed Forces on Ben Gurion Airport, now entering its second week.
The Lebanese Al-Manar website reported that 45 flights to "Tel Aviv" were canceled within just 24 hours, while the entity’s tourism sector has suffered massive losses exceeding $3 billion, according to Hebrew media.
FlightRadar24, a specialized flight-tracking website, showed a sharp decline in flights heading to the enemy’s airports, confirming the cancellation of dozens—especially to Ben Gurion Airport—amid ongoing Yemeni threats to target "Israeli" airports.
Michael O’Leary, CEO of Ryanair, stated that his company "has lost patience with the security situation at Ben Gurion Airport" and is "considering diverting flights to alternative European destinations to ensure safe ticket sales."
These developments come as the Yemeni Armed Forces repeatedly warn airlines against continuing flights to occupied territories, confirming that all enemy airports are now within their target bank.
In this context, a Zionist journalist wrote:
"We cannot defeat the Yemenis—they are determined and resolute! They have successfully disrupted flights to 'Israel' and are causing us massive damage and continuous disruption."
Meanwhile, Zionist journalist Lior Dayan questioned:
"How did Yemen become a country no one can stop? This small movement has turned into one of the most unexpected and influential forces in the Middle East. It seizes cities, fires missiles, attacks 'Israel,' and transforms Yemen into a nation that cannot be invaded, bombed, or controlled from within."
Sources attributed this collapse to travel warnings issued by dozens of countries, noting a 90% drop in tourist arrivals since the war began on October 7, 2023.
