The Security Cabinet has decided that Israel will respond to the Houthi rebels' attack on Ben Gurion Airport earlier today. During a limited telephone discussion following the ballistic missile strike, which included Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Israel Katz, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and senior defense officials, it was decided to respond rather than show restraint. Israeli officials emphasized that any military response will be carried out in coordination with the United States.
