News - Middle East: Palestinian political analyst and expert on Israeli affairs, Suheil Khalilieh, affirmed that Yemeni military operations have had a strong and undeniable impact on the Zionist entity.

In an exclusive statement to Al-Masirah channel, Khalilieh stated that the actions of the Yemeni Armed Forces are not merely strikes against the Zionist economy, but blows to the very structure of the occupation—politically, militarily, socially, and in the media.

He explained that the Yemeni operations have led to the collapse of the occupation’s system, which it has built over a century to craft its image and extend its influence within global political corridors. That image, he said, crumbled in an instant, and today the enemy lives under the weight of missiles and strikes coming from Yemen.

The Palestinian analyst also pointed out that the Zionist entity bears responsibility for the disruption of the global economy due to military operations in the Red Sea and the Mediterranean. He emphasized that the occupation has lost the gains of an entire decade and is now collapsing in reputation, stature, and diplomatic efforts. It has become a liability for countries that align with it—those alliances, he warned, will cost those states dearly and will have catastrophic consequences in the coming years.

Since late 2023, the Yemeni Armed Forces have significantly escalated their regional military operations in response to Israel’s war on Gaza. Framed as acts of solidarity with the Palestinian cause, these operations have included long-range ballistic missile strikes, drone attacks, and naval confrontations targeting Israeli and US-linked assets. The most notable of these actions, such as missile strikes on Lod Airport, have disrupted air travel, triggered mass evacuations, and strained Israel's internal security.

Beyond the immediate military impact, these attacks have had symbolic and strategic consequences, challenging the perception of Israeli invulnerability. Analysts argue that the operations have undermined the political, military, and media narrative Israel has built over decades. The growing military coordination between resistance fronts—from Yemen to Lebanon to Gaza—has further deepened regional instability and exposed the vulnerabilities of the Israeli enemy’s long-standing deterrence framework.
