The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) missile force carried out two top-tier military operations against Israeli targets, spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced on Tuesday.

The first targeted Ben Gurion Airport in the city of Yafa (Tel Aviv) in occupied Palestine using a hypersonic ballistic missile of the Palestine-2 type, Saree said, adding that the second operation targeted a power station in southern occupied al-Quds with a Zulfiqar-type ballistic missile.

According to the spokesperson, both missiles successfully hit their targets.

Saree pointed out that the two operations coincided with a joint operation conducted by the YAF's naval, missile, and UAV forces, targeting the US aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman with a large number of drones and cruise missiles, while US forces were preparing to launch a major aerial attack against Yemen. 
 
He confirmed that the operation successfully achieved its objectives, thwarting the planned American aerial assault on Yemen.

Elsewhere, Saree reiterated that the operations of the YAF will only cease with the cessation of the Israeli aggression against Gaza and the lifting of the blockade imposed on the Palestinian strip.

Yemen missile strike ignites fire in central 'Israel'

On late Monday, sirens sounded across several city settlements and Israeli-occupied areas in central Palestine, amid a Yemeni missile attack. 

At 11:11 am (local time) sirens went off in Tel Aviv, Rehovot, Rishon LeZion, Holon, Bat Yam, occupied al-Ramleh, the suburb of Petach Tikva, occupied Isdud, and Beit Shemesh, among other areas.

Meanwhile, air traffic was halted at the Ben Gurion Airport. Shrapnel resulting from the missile attack also fell in the Beit Shemesh area, while Israeli media outlets reported that a large fragment fell in Ramat, near Tel Aviv.

Other Israeli media outlets criticized the Israeli occupation forces' spokesperson, saying that when the spokesperson "says the missile was intercepted outside Israel's borders, he is either lying or distorting the truth."

The Yemeni missile attack was launched following an American-British assault on the country. Strikes targeted the al-Tuhayta district, south of the port city of Hodeidah. 

Israeli correspondent on Arab Affairs for the Israeli broadcasting corporation KAN Roi Kais said that the ballistic missiles were launched from an area south of Hodeidah, which is the same area reported to have been attacked by the United States hours earlier.
