Ben Gurion Airport is about 10 miles southeast of Tel Aviv. One missile hit the town of Yehud about a mile north of the airport, damaged a house but didn't hurt anybody. I wouldn't think twice about my own safety flying into Israel, but many of the world's airlines are pretty nervous now after Putin's antics in Ukraine. Delta is still not flying there, despite the FAA ban being lifted (as is still true for a number of other carriers).
BTW, the FAA isn't a political operation.
