This is alarming news for Israel, especially after the announcement by the leader of the revolution Sayyed Abdulmalik Badreddin Al-Houthi about the resumption of Yemeni operations in response to the blockade of aid to Gaza.
Under the headline *"A Worrying Report for Israel: Houthi Drones Will Be Much More Deadly,"* the Hebrew newspaper discussed what the American newspaper *The New York Times* published on Thursday.
The report highlighted that weapons researchers have concluded that the Yemeni Armed Forces may have acquired advanced technologies that make their drones more capable of evading detection and traveling longer distances, giving them an element of surprise against American and Israeli forces.
The American newspaper reported that evidence examined by weapons researchers suggests that the Yemenis may have gained new technologies that make it harder to detect drones and help them fly longer distances.
According to the report, these technologies include hydrogen fuel cells, which generate electricity through the reaction of oxygen in the air with compressed hydrogen via a series of charged metal plates, releasing water vapor while producing minimal heat or noise.
The report indicated that traditional Yemeni drones, powered by gas combustion engines or lithium batteries, can travel approximately 750 miles. However, hydrogen fuel cells could enable them to travel three times that distance, making them harder to detect by acoustic and infrared sensors.
The report quoted Timur Khan, an investigator at the Conflict Armament Research Center, a British group that identifies and tracks weapons and ammunition used in wars worldwide, as saying that this could give the Yemenis an element of surprise against American or Israeli military forces if confrontations resume.
According to the report, hydrogen-based electric power using fuel cells dates back decades and was used by NASA during the Apollo missions. Its use in powering military drones emerged in the late 2000s during the American wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The report also quoted Andy Kelly from *Intelligent Energy*, a British company that manufactures hydrogen fuel cells used in drones. These cells are now sold by several American companies to the Department of Defense.
He pointed out that hydrogen systems can store three times more energy than lithium batteries of the same weight, allowing drone operators to carry more weight over longer distances.
He confirmed that fuel cells also produce minimal vibrations, which is crucial for moving surveillance cameras and other sensors on drones. Additionally, they can be reused many more times than the rechargeable batteries typically used to power drones.
In a strong statement regarding Yemen’s stance on the ongoing conflict, Minister of Defense Mohammed Al-Atifi announced that the Yemeni Armed Forces are prepared to escalate military actions in direct response to the scale of challenges and any unforeseen developments.
The minister noted that Yemen's intelligence services have closely monitored the movement of Zionist vessels, collecting precise data on their targets.
“Zionist ships will be addressed in upcoming operations, as dictated by the comprehensive naval battle strategy,” Al-Atifi declared.
Highlighting Yemen's military advancements, Al-Atifi revealed that the nation's capabilities are sufficient to engage in long-term naval battles with methods that will surprise the enemies.
“Our missiles are more accurate, our aircraft have greater range, and our boats and submarines are highly advanced,” he stated.
“We have prepared the necessary tools and resources to target sensitive areas and high-value facilities, and we intend to carry out our plans if the aggression, siege continue,” the minister added.
As the situation continues to unfold, Al-Atifi assured the Yemeni people and the international community that Yemen's resolve remains steadfast in defending Gaza and opposing any form of aggression. "The naval battle will not be the same as before,” he concluded.
