The battle that Yemen is fighting will negatively affect the American administration and the Israeli entity, Hizam al-Assad, a member of the Political Bureau of the Yemeni Ansar Allah Movement, pointed out on Saturday.

Al-Assad told Al Mayadeen that Sanaa will continue launching missiles and drones amid "an open war with the Israeli entity and the American administration" that is on an escalating trajectory.

Earlier on Saturday, a Palestine 2-typed hypersonic ballistic missile launched by the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) struck Tel Aviv, injuring at least 20 settlers, as per Israeli media.

Israeli police confirmed the missile’s impact and noted the damage caused, adding that an investigation would be launched to determine the cause of the interception failure.

Al-Assad indicated that Sanaa does not adopt the tit-for-tat policy, affirming that Yemen's target bank "is vast and comprehensive, and includes vital, military, and infrastructure targets for the Israeli entity."

He also revealed that "all targets within the Israeli entity have now come within the range of attack, thanks to the introduction of new systems for Yemen's missile force."

According to al-Assad, all of "Israel's" targets in Yemen are civilian and service-oriented goals, which indicates the lack of intelligence information within the Israeli occupation entity.

A couple of days ago, dozens of Israeli Air Force warplanes attacked alleged strategic targets in Yemen, specifically in Hodeidah, and for the first time, in the suburbs of the capital, Sanaa.

At least nine people were killed and several others were injured as a result of the aggression that coincided with a top-tier military operation carried out by the missile unit of the YAF against two Israeli sensitive and strategic military targets in the occupied Yafa (Tel Aviv) region using two Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missiles.

Yemen reached advanced techniques for various types of weapons

While noting that the issue of halting the escalation in the Red Sea is often raised with Yemen, al-Assad stressed on Saturday that Sanaa's "position is firm" and its condition is "the cessation of genocide and the blockade on Gaza."

The Ansar Allah official told Al Mayadeen that Yemen has "reached advanced techniques for various types of weapons" that could be unveiled in the future.

Al-Assad further asserted that "Yemen has the right to achieve self-sufficiency and acquire weapons manufacturing technologies, and to engage with any country."

"Our path is one of support for Gaza, and the continuation of this front is linked to Resistance movements, spearheaded by Hamas," the Yemeni official asserted.
