Impact verdict
Medium impact. Loss pathway: Ben Gurion is Israel's primary international gateway โ a major commercial aviation hub with insured airline operations, airport infrastructure, and aircraft on the ground. Evidence: attack reportedly paralyzed airport operations, implying significant flight disruption and potential physical damage. Limit: The source does not confirm structural damage to terminals/runways, aircraft hull losses, or specific insured loss estimates. If confirmed physical damage to terminal or aircraft exists, impact would escalate to HIGH given multi-syndicate aviation war risk and property exposure at a major international airport in a JWC-listed area.
