The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) conducted a top-tier military operation targeting the Israeli Security Ministry in occupied Yafa [Tel Aviv] using the ballistic Zulfiqar missile. 

According to YAF spokesperson General Brigadier Yahya Saree, the missile accurately struck its target after the Israeli occupation's defense systems failed to intercept it. 

Saree reiterated Yemen's commitment to supporting Palestine and its people, adding that the Yemeni and Palestinian resistances are cooperating to confront any Israeli escalation or breach during the period of the ceasefire agreement. 

Earlier today, the spokesperson for the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) said sirens blasted throughout Tel Aviv and its surrounding settlements after the launch of a Yemeni missile at central "Israel". 

Israeli media also reported that sounds of explosions were heard from the West Bank after sirens sounded in Tel Aviv and Ben Gurion Airport.
