The spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces Brigadier General Yahya Saree says the country’s missile and drone units have carried out a series of reprisal operations against strategic positions deep inside the Israeli-occupied territories, as they continue their operations in support of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip amid the Israeli genocide.
Yahya Saree announced in a televised statement on Tuesday morning that Yemeni missile divisions had conducted a strike on the premises of the Israeli ministry of military affairs in Tel Aviv, using a homegrown Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile.
Saree added that the missile could successfully hit its designated target, noting that advanced Israeli anti-air systems failed to intercept and shoot it down, Press TV reported.
He went on to underline that Yemeni Armed Forces will not abandon their religious, moral and humanitarian obligations towards the oppressed Palestinian nation, whatever the repercussions.
“With God's help, we will escalate their military operations against the Israeli enemy until the ongoing aggression against the Gaza Strip stops and the siege on the territory is lifted,” the spokesperson stated.
Meanwhile, Israeli media reported that more than a dozen Israeli settlers were injured while fleeing to shelters after a Yemeni missile penetrated the airspace over the occupied lands.
The Hebrew-language Hadashot Bazman news website put the number of casualties at 15.
The latest Yemeni pro-Palestinian operation is the third of its kind within the past 12 hours.
Earlier on Monday night, the Yemeni military took responsibility for a ballistic missile strike at the coastal city of Tel Aviv in the Israeli-occupied lands.
“We carried out a military operation targeting a vital target of the Israeli enemy in Tel Aviv, using a hypersonic ballistic missile,” Saree said in a statement aired by Yemen’s al-Masirah television channel.
“The operation achieved its objective successfully,” he said, adding that Yemeni military forces also carried out an attack using four kamikaze drones and targeted “vital targets” in Tel Aviv.
