Israel on Friday said its defences intercepted a missile launched from Yemen, the third to be fired in less than 24 hours.
"Following the alerts ... one missile launched from Yemen was intercepted," the army said in a statement.
Yemen's Houthi rebels confirmed the attack, saying they targeted the Ben Gurion Airport using a "hypersonic ballistic missile".
In a televised speech, Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said the group would continue to attack Israel until lifted the siege and stopped its war in Gaza.
The incident comes less than 24 hours after the Israeli military said it intercepted two missiles launched by the Houthis, which caused a brief suspension of flights at Ben Gurion.
Earlier this month, a missile launched from Yemen landed near the airport, injuring several people in a rare failure of Israel's air defences.
Undeterred by Israeli and US strikes, the Iran-backed Houthis have continued to fire missiles at Israel in what they describe as an act of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, although they have agreed to halt attacks on US ships.
An Israel strike on May 6 damaged the airport in the Yemeni capital Sanaa. Other attacks last week hit the Red Sea ports of Hodeidah and Salif.
Since the start of the Gaza war in October 2023, the Houthis have launched dozens of missile and drone attacks against Israel, most of which have been intercepted or fell short.

Why are you, you?
Why are you, you?
From this question, a new beginning.
From this question, a new destiny.
For you are a world, and a meeting of worlds.
Our dream is to unite that which has been
separated by history.
To return the many to the one.
A great story unites us all,
beyond colour and creed and gender.
The lightning flash of art
And the music of the heart.
We reflect all cultures, all ways.
We are a twenty first century wonder.
Universal ideals, visions of art and truth.
Now is the turning point of cultures and hopes.
Come with questions, leave with visions.
We are the link between the past and the future.
Here, through art, new possibilities are born. And
new answers are given wings.
Why are you, you?
Because we are mirrors of each other.
Because together we create new worlds.
Together we are more powerful than we know.
We connect, we inspire, we multiply illuminations
with the unique light of art.

Chef Nobu's advice for eating sushi
“One mistake people always make is adding extra wasabi. There is no need for this, because it should already be there between the rice and the fish.
“When eating nigiri, you must dip the fish – not the rice – in soy sauce, otherwise the rice will collapse. Also, don’t use too much soy sauce or it will make you thirsty. For sushi rolls, dip a little of the rice-covered roll lightly in soy sauce and eat in one bite.
“Chopsticks are acceptable, but really, I recommend using your fingers for sushi. Do use chopsticks for sashimi, though.
“The ginger should be eaten separately as a palette cleanser and used to clear the mouth when switching between different pieces of fish.”
