The Yemeni Armed Forces strikes zionist military sites with drones as a demonstration of support for Palestinians in Gaza
Drones carrying explosives, reportedly launched from Yemen, have targeted Israeli military installations within the disputed territories. This action is part of ongoing efforts by the Yemeni Armed Forces, who claim it is in retaliation for what they describe as the Israeli government's genocidal actions against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
In a recent declaration, the spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces confirmed that the nation’s drone unit successfully executed an operation targeting an Israeli military site in Ashkelon, approximately 50 kilometers south of Tel Aviv. The attack, conducted on Monday, utilized an indigenously developed, long-range Yaffa kamikaze drone.
Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced that a separate drone strike had successfully targeted a military installation in Tel Aviv.
A spokesperson from Yemen announced that the recent operations constituted the fifth phase in their ongoing conflict with Israel and reported that the missions successfully met their intended goals.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have announced their intention to persist with military operations, targeting Israeli installations located within the occupied territories, according to official statements by Saree. These actions will remain in effect unless the current hostilities against Gaza cease and the blockade is entirely removed, he emphasized.
This development follows an incident two days prior, in which a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile, launched from Yemen, targeted the southern Jaffa area of Tel Aviv, injuring at least 20 Israeli settlers.
According to reports from Israeli media, a missile launch early Saturday morning activated sirens across the central region of the occupied territories at 3:44 a.m. local time (0144 GMT), prompting millions of residents to hastily seek refuge in shelters as they were abruptly awakened from their sleep.
The Israeli military reported unsuccessful attempts at interceptions, stating that the specifics of the incident are currently under investigation.
Footage circulating on social media platforms captured the exact moment of impact as well as the unsuccessful attempts at interception.
Video evidence also captured shattered windows and debris scattered across multiple nearby apartments, seemingly caused by the impact of the shockwave.
Yemeni citizens have publicly expressed their solidarity with Palestine in its conflict against Israeli occupation. This support arises following the onset of Israel’s significant military offensive on Gaza, which began on October 7, 2023. The escalation was triggered by Palestinian resistance factions initiating Operation Al-Aqsa Flood against Israeli forces.
Ansarullah has declared its intent to target vessels associated with Israel, the United States, or the United Kingdom, as part of its strategy to pressure the Tel Aviv government into halting its military actions in Gaza, which they describe as genocidal.
The Yemeni armed forces have announced their determination to persist with their assaults until Israel ceases its ground and aerial operations in Gaza.
To date, Israeli actions have resulted in the deaths of over 45,300 Palestinians, predominantly women and children, in the Gaza Strip, with at least 107,700 individuals reported injured.
