The Yemeni Armed Forces announced Saturday that they carried out a military operation targeting an Israeli occupation military site in the southern region of the Tel Aviv Metropolitan Area. The attack was conducted using a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile.
The missile successfully struck its intended target, and Israeli interception systems failed to prevent its impact, Yemeni Armed Forces spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree declared.
The operation was described as part of Yemen's ongoing support for the Palestinian people and their resistance in Gaza, and a direct response to the genocidal campaign carried out by the Israeli occupation with full backing from the United States.
Gaza mirrors regional future
The statement warned of broader regional consequences should the Israeli aggression on Gaza continue unchallenged. "The entire nation will bear the consequences of silence, betrayal, and submission," the Yemeni Armed Forces declared.
"What is happening in Gaza today will, sooner or later, reach other countries, and the enemy will only become more aggressive and expansionist."
Emphasizing the urgency of proactive resistance, the statement added, "Supporting Gaza now, while it defends us all, is far better than waiting for the threat to reach every capital."
The Yemeni Armed Forces reaffirmed their commitment to continuing military operations in support of the Palestinian people until the aggression on Gaza is halted and the blockade is lifted.
Sirens irk Israeli settlers
Sirens sounded across the occupied al-Quds region and the Dead Sea area early Saturday, following the launch of a ballistic missile from Yemen, the third such launch in the past 24 hours, according to the Israeli occupation's Army Radio.
Yedioth Ahronoth noted that nearly 1.5 million settlers across occupied Palestine were jolted awake by the early morning alerts. The report highlighted the continued failure of the US-led aggression on Yemen to neutralize its military capabilities, despite over a month and a half having passed since the beginning of the US campaign.
On Friday, the Yemeni Armed Forces announced a new military operation targeting a critical facility belonging to the Israeli regime in the occupied Haifa area. The operation reportedly involved a hypersonic ballistic missile, the second of its kind launched within hours.
Saree confirmed that the missile struck its target with high precision, forcing hundreds of thousands of settlers into shelters.
