The Israeli occupation military confirmed on Monday the launch of a ballistic missile from Yemen targeting the occupied territories, triggering widespread alarm across central and southern occupied Palestine, including the al-Quds area and illegal settlements in the southern West Bank.

According to the Israeli military, sirens were activated in multiple locations as air defense systems attempted to intercept the incoming projectile. The military claimed it was actively working to down the missile, which marks the latest operation in a series of long-range attacks launched from Yemen.

Since the Israeli occupation resumed its large-scale assault on Gaza on March 18, Yemen's Ansar Allah movement has intensified its support for Palestinians by launching 44 ballistic missiles and at least 10 drones toward the occupied Palestinian territories.

While many of these projectiles have reportedly failed to reach their targets, the continued launches have exposed vulnerabilities in the Israeli security posture and forced repeated disruptions across vast areas.

Sanaa declares Israeli military routes as combat zones

Yemeni Supreme Political Council President Mahdi al-Mashat announced on Friday that all air and maritime routes used by Israeli forces to conduct attacks on Yemen are now designated as dangerous zones for civilian and commercial traffic, as Sanaa steps up its military response to the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza.

"For the safety of air and maritime navigation in the areas where our armed forces operate, we have issued directives to designate the routes used by the Zionist enemy to attack our country as dangerous zones for all companies," al-Mashat stated. He urged airlines and maritime operators to reroute, warning of impending military actions targeting the Israelis operating in these corridors.

The declaration comes days after Israeli warplanes struck Sanaa International Airport, prompting al-Mashat to directly warn Israeli settlers that their government could no longer protect them. "The government of filthy Netanyahu will not be able to protect you," he said, stressing that "bunkers will no longer be safe."

In his address, the Yemeni leader reaffirmed the capability of his armed forces to engage Israeli warplanes without disrupting international air or sea traffic. "Our armed forces will be able to deal with the hostile Zionist aircraft without any harm to air and maritime navigation," he said.

Yemen hints at possible military feat

Al-Mashat also hinted at imminent developments, saying, "You will soon receive, God willing, good news about the Zionist enemy's aircraft used in the aggression against our country." He added that Yemen's air defenses would soon make those aircraft "a source of ridicule."

Al-Mashat also condemned the Israeli occupation government, stating, "Netanyahu's criminal government doesn't care about investor interests, gambling with their safety to serve its own agenda. A regime that neglects its own prisoners' lives won't protect foreign companies or investments."

He added that Yemeni authorities would soon announce a departure deadline for affected companies to minimize harm and avoid collateral damage. He warned that consequences may not be limited to operations inside "Israel" but could extend to investments abroad if the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) escalate.

Al-Mashat concluded by noting that some companies had already begun moving their assets in response to earlier warnings and advised others to act swiftly before it was too late.
