Sanaa (IP) – The Yemeni Armed Forces have announced a successful missile attack on two sensitive military targets in Tel Aviv using “Palestine-2” hypersonic ballistic missiles..

Iran Press/West Asia: Brigadier General Yahya Saree, spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces, declared on Thursday that the operation was conducted in solidarity with the Palestinian people and as a response to the massacres committed in Gaza. He framed the strikes as part of Yemen’s broader fifth phase of support in the “Battle for the Promised Victory and Sacred Jihad.”

“The missile unit of the Yemeni Armed Forces successfully targeted two specific and sensitive Israeli military sites in the occupied Jaffa region (Tel Aviv),” Saree stated. “This operation was carried out with divine assistance and achieved its objectives with precision.”

Retaliation Amid Israeli Strikes

Saree emphasized that the missile strikes were a direct and natural response to recent Israeli attacks on civilian infrastructure in Sanaa and the Al-Hudaydah governorate, including power plants.

“The Israeli aggressions against Yemen and its people will not deter us from fulfilling our moral and religious duty to respond to their crimes in Gaza,” Saree added. “We will continue to strike all hostile targets using appropriate weapons until their attacks cease.”

He also warned that Yemeni operations would only halt if Israel stopped its aggression against Gaza and lifted the blockade.

The announcement follows reports from Israeli media early Thursday that confirmed Yemeni missile strikes had successfully hit their intended targets in Tel Aviv.
