Israel's Ben Gurion airport closed until further notice

Israel's Ben Gurion international airport is closed until further notice, a spokeswoman said on Saturday, as Israel and Iran traded fire for a second day.

"There is no date or day set to reopen the airport," airport spokeswoman Lisa Diver told AFP.

Meanwhile, Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz on Saturday warned that "Tehran will burn" if Iran fired more missiles at Israel, as the arch foes traded fire for a second day.

"The Iranian dictator is turning the citizens of Iran into hostages and bringing about a reality in which they -- especially the residents of Tehran -- will pay a heavy price because of the criminal harm to Israeli civilians," Katz was quoted as saying in a statement.

"If (Ayatollah Ali) Khamenei continues to fire missiles toward the Israeli home front -- Tehran will burn."
