The Yemeni Armed Forces have carried out a new operation targeting Israel’s Ben Gurion airport with a ballistic missile, the third operation against the regime within the past 24 hours in support of Palestine and in retaliation for the ongoing genocide and starvation of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
In a statement on Thursday, the Yemeni forces said they used a "Zulfiqar" ballistic missile in the military operation targeting the airport in the occupied city of Yaffa, near Tel Aviv.
The missile reached its target, and all Israeli and American interception systems failed to intercept it, they added.
According to the statement, the operation sent millions of settlers to shelters and caused the suspension of the airport operations.
The Yemeni forces also criticized the stance of some cowardly Arab and Muslim countries, along with the complicity and participation of others, which they said have encouraged the Israeli enemy to proceed with its brutal criminal plan of tightening the siege and expanding the aggression.
This will only exacerbate the famine and increase the number of victims, they warned.
The forces emphasized that all nations must take action and break all restrictions in fulfillment of their religious, moral, and humanitarian duties to end the Israeli regime’s unprecedented crimes.
“Everyone bears responsibility, and their duty will not be done until it is fulfilled,” the statement pointed out.
The Yemeni forces vowed to continue to support Gaza until the end of the aggression and siege against the Strip.
The Yemeni Armed Forces on Wednesday conducted missile strikes on Tel Aviv, shutting down Ben Gurion Airport and sending settlers running to shelters.
In a statement, the Yemeni military said it had carried out a qualitative, dual military operation using two ballistic missiles, one of which was a ”Palestine-2” missile and the other was a “Zulfiqar” type.
Yemeni Armed Forces began their campaign against Israel, attacking Israeli-linked ships as well as striking targets in the occupied territories in November 2023, a month after the usurping regime unleashed its genocide in Gaza.
Yemen halted its attacks in January, when Israel accepted a Gaza ceasefire.
Two months later, however, Israel unilaterally broke the Gaza truce and resumed its aggression, prompting the Yemeni forces to resume their operations in support of Palestinians.
