Latest news first: On Monday morning, Yemeni armed forces launched a ballistic missile strike toward occupied Palestinian territories, forcing the Israeli regime to halt all flights at Ben Gurion International Airport. Air raid sirens sounded across Tel Aviv and central and southern occupied Palestine as the missile triggered a full security alert, causing major disruptions to air traffic and effectively isolating the occupying regime from the skies.
The Israeli occupation army confirmed that a missile was fired from Yemen toward central parts of the occupied territories.
In a related development, Brigadier General Esmail Qaani, commander of the IRGC’s Quds Force, has announced the establishment of a powerful new Axis of Resistance security belt stretching from the Strait of Hormuz to the Bab el-Mandeb and from the Persian Gulf to the Red Sea.

“From the Strait of Hormuz to Bab el-Mandeb and from the Persian Gulf to the Red Sea, a new security belt of the Resistance will be established,” the Quds Force commander said in a statement issued on Monday.
General Qaani praised the heroic and timely operations by Yemen, highlighting the growing wisdom, coordination, and strength of the Resistance Front in confronting Israeli and American provocations.
“The timely and powerful action by heroic Yemen is a sign of the wisdom of the Resistance Front. If necessary, others will also join,” he stated.
“The mischief of the Zionist regime and America in this region will be met with the reaction of the united Resistance Front,” he stressed.
In a stark warning, General Qaani declared: “Borderless fighters are watching over your chokepoints. If you continue your aggression, they will seize you by the throat.”
The IRGC commander’s remarks come as the Axis of Resistance displays unprecedented unity and resolve against the Zionist regime’s savage aggressions on Gaza, Lebanon, and the Islamic Republic of Iran — aggressions that the regime carries out with full backing from the United States.
General Qaani’s warning is clear: any new Israeli or American aggression in the strategic waterways of West Asia will trigger a swift, coordinated, and devastating response from resistance forces across multiple fronts.
Yemen’s Ansarullah movement has already demonstrated its power to impose crippling costs on Israeli-linked shipping in the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandeb. Yahya Saree, the military spokesman for Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement, has affirmed in similar operations that such strikes are part of the ongoing “holy jihad” in support of the oppressed people of Palestine, Lebanon, and Iran against US-Israeli aggression.
