SANAA (Dispatches) — A
missile launched from Yemen triggered air raid sirens across central Israeli occupied territories early Wednesday, sending millions of settlers looking for cover for the second night in a row.
Police reported shrapnel from the missile fell in several towns. There were no reports of injuries.
It was the fourth time in a week that fire from Yemen set off sirens in Israeli settlements. On Saturday, 1 6 people were injured when a missile hit a playground in Tel Aviv after Israel’s hyped air defense system failed to intercept it.
The missiles were after Israeli jets struck Yemen’s capital and a port city earlier last week, killing nine.
Military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree the new operation involved a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile, and struck an Israeli military target in Tel Aviv.
The missile strike, he said, was part of the fifth phase of the battle against the Israeli enemy, and could successfully attain its desired objectives.
Yemeni armed forces will continue their operations, and will strike all Israeli facilities within the occupied territories, he said. Such strikes will not stop unless the aggression on Gaza stops and the siege is completely lifted, he added.
Yemen has intensified its pro-Palestine strikes against Israeli targets and the occupied territories.
Recent attacks include a Tuesday missile strike on a military site in Tel Aviv’s southern suburb of Jaffa, a Monday drone attack on an Ashkelon site, and a Saturday missile strike near Tel Aviv, injuring 20 settlers.
Yemeni strikes drive hundreds of thousands of settlers into shelters nightly, with Zionist authorities unable to respond, according to Israeli media.

Yemen’s arsenal includes long-range ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones capable of hitting targets up to 2,000 kilometers away.

Yemenis have declared their open support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched its devastating war on Gaza on October 7, 2023.

Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement has also been targeting ships linked to Israel, the United States, or the United Kingdom to force an end to the Tel Aviv regime’s genocidal war on Gaza.

These operations have effectively shut down the Eilat port south of the occupied territories, causing significant economic setbacks for the Israelis.

The Yemeni armed forces have said they will not stop their attacks until Israel’s ground and aerial offensives in Gaza end.
