In response to Israel’s escalating aggression and expanded military operations in Gaza, the Yemeni Armed Forces have declared a full air blockade on Israel," YAF spokesperson Brigadier General Yehya Saree said in a statement.
“The Yemeni Armed Forces will enforce the aerial blockade by repeatedly attacking airports, with Ben Gurion Airport, known as Lod Airport in Israel, as their primary target,” he emphasized.
The statement called on all international airlines to take this threat seriously from the moment of its issuance and cancel all flights to Israeli airports to preserve the safety of their aircraft and passengers.
No, I’m suggesting the headline should read “Yemen declares blockade of Zionist-operated airports in Palestine”
Which is a mouthful, could be shortened to “air blockade against Zionists” or “air blockade of occupied Palestine”
Alright, but why do you permit the word Zionist but not Israel?
Because Zionist is descriptor of a member of an ideology without explicit or implicit respect to any claim to ownership or dominion over anything, while Israel is a term which explicitly gives respect to an unfounded and illegal claim for dominion over the lands of Palestine.
