Israel Issues Urgent Warning to Yemeni Capital: Evacuate Sanaa Airport Immediately
Report by Safarti Tarjuman International Desk
Israel has issued a high-alert evacuation directive for Sanaa International Airport, warning of a potential military response if the facility continues to be used for hostile activities.
The warning, described by Israeli officials as immediate and non-negotiable, was conveyed through diplomatic and defense channels to regional entities. The directive is based on intelligence reports suggesting that the airport, located in the Houthi-controlled capital of Yemen, may be facilitating drone and missile operations aimed at Israeli targets.
Airlines, humanitarian agencies, and other foreign personnel operating in Sanaa have reportedly been advised to evacuate or suspend activity immediately.
No official statement has been made by Houthi authorities in response to the evacuation demand. However, the group’s alignment with anti-Israel rhetoric and its recent threats to regional stability have drawn international concern.
The development comes amid growing instability in the Red Sea region, with rising fears that a potential Israeli strike on Yemeni territory could ignite a broader regional confrontation involving multiple actors.
Diplomatic efforts are underway to contain the threat and de-escalate tensions, but Israeli officials remain firm that national security will not be compromised.
