Yemen: Yemen continues to impose new strategic equations through the escalation and consistency of its high-level military operations against the Israeli enemy—both in terms of quantity and the nature of targeted sites.

In the past two days, the Yemeni Armed Forces announced successful drone and ballistic missile attacks targeting key areas deep within the Israeli entity, including the occupied Negev, Jaffa, and Ashkelon.

Significant Impact

Regarding the impact of these operations on the Israeli interior, Lebanese military expert Brigadier General Nidal Zahwi confirmed that the attacks "have a major effect on the occupied Palestinian territories."

In a statement to Almasirah TV, Zahwi said that missile and drone launches from Yemen are forcing "hundreds of thousands of usurpers into shelters."

He noted that the frequent activation of air raid sirens throughout the Israeli interior is placing real pressure on the Israeli regime to halt its aggression in Gaza and agree to a prisoner exchange deal.

Zahwi emphasized that the timing of these strikes alongside the arrival of negotiating delegations reflects "their influence on the course of negotiations and the trajectory of the battle."

Establishing a New Strategic Equation

For his part, Mohammad Hazima, a writer and strategic affairs researcher, said the continuation of Yemen’s operations embodies the force behind victory and contributes to establishing a strategic equation that confirms the inevitable defeat of the Israeli entity and the superiority of the resistance—starting from Yemen.

In a statement to Almasirah TV, Hazima added that these operations motivate resistance factions and strengthen the position of Palestinian negotiators seeking to end the genocide in Gaza.

Advanced Tactics and Growing Capabilities

On military tactics, Brig. Gen. Zahwi explained that the diversity of targets (Jaffa, Negev, Ashkelon) is intended to "overwhelm the Iron Dome defense system."

He praised the Yemeni drones' advanced capability to "fly at low altitudes below radar levels" as they approach Israeli-occupied territory, making interception difficult and revealing "a well-defined target bank by Yemeni forces."

Zahwi stressed that targeting Jaffa proves Yemen’s ability to "strike maritime vessels even in the Mediterranean Sea." He noted that Yemen’s recent threat to strike all commercial ships affiliated with Israeli-linked companies could be a decisive blow.

He asserted that Yemen is reinforcing its new equation after securing its position and shifting the regional balance—adding that Israel is no longer the only actor operating without deterrence or accountability.

Palestine-2 Missile and Advanced Technologies

Hazima noted that Yemen has already entered the fourth phase of its operations and that the "fifth phase is ready."

He highlighted that the Palestine-2 missile—capable of reaching Mach 16—is "difficult to intercept" and poses "a serious threat to most strategic sites" in Israel. He also praised Yemen’s intelligence success in accurately identifying targets.

Meanwhile, Zahwi pointed out that Yemeni drones, by flying low to evade radar detection, have a greater psychological impact on settlers, as it is harder to predict their target zones—forcing more civilians into shelters, unlike missiles whose trajectory is more traceable.

These consecutive, coordinated strikes reaffirm Yemen’s unwavering support for Gaza and its growing deterrence capabilities.

Military experts and political analysts agree that Yemen’s operations have had a profound impact, surprising observers and specialists alike. They affirm that Yemen’s military power is growing day by day and that its strategy is proving effective in supporting the Palestinian resistance and creating real consequences inside the occupied territories—ultimately strengthening the resistance’s negotiating position.
