Israel's Consul in New York, Ophir Akunis, criticized American airlines that canceled their flights to Israel following the missile launched by Houthis from Yemen that hit Ben Gurion Airport two days ago, saying they are sending a 'terrible message' of surrendering to terrorism. According to him, 'If we are allies - then it's both in difficult times and good times, not only when convenient. It is very impolite of United Airlines to cancel flights to Israel for a week. We must stand together and resolutely against terrorist organizations.'
