News - Yemen: The Yemeni Armed Forces announced on Wednesday the execution of a precision dual missile operation targeting sensitive Israeli sites in occupied Jaffa. The attack, carried out with two ballistic missiles, was described as both a response to Israeli crimes in Gaza and an initial retaliation for the recent Israeli aggression against Yemen.

In a statement, Armed Forces spokesperson Brig. Gen. Yahya Sare'e confirmed that the operation involved two ballistic missiles: one a split-warhead Palestine-2, used for the second time, and the other a Zolfiqar missile. The statement added that the operation successfully struck key targets, causing panic among millions of Zionists, disruption of Lod (Ben Gurion) Airport operations, and heightened security alerts.

The statement also highlighted Yemenis’ commemoration of the Prophet Muhammad’s birthday while maintaining positions of support and solidarity with the Palestinian people until the Israeli siege on Gaza is lifted. The Armed Forces reaffirmed their confidence in Allah’s support and guidance in achieving victory.

The Yemeni military further emphasized that the Israeli enemy will not enjoy security or stability, warning that such operations will continue at an escalating pace in the coming phase.

The operation marks a new phase in the confrontation between Yemen and the Israeli enemy, following a series of Israeli aggression that targeted Yemeni leaders and government facilities in recent weeks. Yemen has increasingly positioned itself as a frontline actor in defending the Palestinian cause, framing its military operations as both retaliation for Israeli aggression on Yemeni soil and solidarity with the people of Gaza, who continue to face blockade, starvation, and mass casualties from ongoing Israeli assaults.

This is not the first time Yemen has employed advanced ballistic technology against the Israeli enemy. The Palestine-2 missile, with its split-warhead design, was introduced earlier, signaling Yemen’s growing precision-strike capabilities. Analysts note that such operations aim not only to inflict material damage but also to undermine Zionist confidence in its security and disrupt vital infrastructure such as Lod Airport.
