A Mahan Airlines plane carrying a delegation from the Houthis, which was scheduled to travel from Tehran to Yemen on Monday, 22 Tir, landed at Al-Hudaydah Airport.

The flight took place after Yemen’s official government said that an attack on the airport controlled by the Houthis in Sana’a was carried out in order to prevent this plane from landing.

According to Mehr, a video released from inside the Mahan Airlines aircraft shows passengers chanting “Allahu Akbar,” “Death to Israel,” and “Curse on the Jews.” A few hours later, Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Defense also reported that it had tracked and destroyed a ballistic missile fired by Houthi militia groups affiliated with the Islamic Republic of Iran.
