Yemeni revolutionaries launched a new missile at ‘Israel’ on Thursday, forcing millions of Israelis to shelters and keeping the Zionist entity within the range of fire in support of the oppressed people in Gaza.
Yemeni Armed Forces announced the strike, with spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree saying a ballistic missile “Zoulfiqar” targeted the Lod airport in occupied Yafa, referring to the Israeli names of Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv.
The operation “successfully achieved its objective, thanks to God, causing sirens to sound in more than 300 towns and cities, prompting millions of Zionists to rush to shelters, and halting air traffic at the airport,” Brig. Gen. Saree stated.
He vowed that the Yemeni Armed Forces “will continue to develop their capabilities, strengthening their role in this battle in support of the oppressed Palestinian people.”

Earlier on Thursday, Israeli occupation military said it has identified a missile launch from Yemen, with air defense systems activated “to intercept the threat.”
The attack triggers sirens in parts of “central Israel”, Al-Quds (Jerusalem) area and some West Bank settlements, Israeli media reported, citing the occupation army.
The occupation army claimed to have intercepted the Yemeni missile.
The Yemeni revolutionaries have intensified missile and drone strikes on the Zionist entity since the occupation military resumed attacks on Gaza in March after two months of a shaky ceasefire.
Earlier, the naval force of the Yemeni Armed Forces targeted the ship “ETERNITY C”, which was heading to the Israeli port of Eilat.
The attack was carried out with an unmanned boat and six cruise and ballistic missiles, resulting in the complete sinking of the ship, Spokesman Brig. Gen. Saree announced on Wednesday.
The naval operation followed another one which targeted ship “Magic Seas” and resulted in its complete sinking, Saree announced on Tuesday.

Since November 2023, Yemeni revolutionaries have targeted commercial shipping in the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden, and the Arabian Sea heading for the Israeli ports, in support of Palestinians in Gaza, where the brutal Israeli war has killed nearly 57,700 people so far.
