In a televised statement on Sunday, Yemeni military spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree confirmed that the strike was carried out with a hypersonic missile dubbed “Palestine-2.”

“The operation successfully achieved its objective,” Saree said, adding that the attack triggered air raid sirens, disrupted flights, and “halted airport activity” in the occupied territories.

The Yemeni spokesman said the strike was part of a wider campaign in response to Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, now in its 22nd month, and in retaliation for Israeli air raids on Yemen.

    Because in response of this, israel will probably kill 1000 in Yemen, and Palestine as well, just to remind them.

    I admire Yemen, but attacking the group that controls all the most powerful countries and weapons is suicide. As they said many times, they will kill 1000 palestinians for every israeli killed, or hurt, or annoyed, or just because a zionist hit his toe in the bed this morning.

        Sorry, that was not against it. The world needs brave countries like Yemen to show that there is resistance. I wish I could do something even though I knew it would be suicide. But that’s what I was saying, it’s suicide. Martyrdom.

        But on the hitler part, if they controlled all the super powers, the global media and had massively stronger military power with atomic bombs, there would have been no other side. They would have won and we would be talking about the holocaust of the poor arian race, which justified everything they did. To make it clear, they would have taken the place of the israel.

          If anything Yemen has shown that Israel is not nearly as strong as its pretends to be. Flying a bunch of F35s over Saudi is extremely expensive. Israel relies on shock and awe, a few massive bombing campaigns to scare anyone off. But they cannot keep up that kind of firepower because of the physical distance, and they simply don’t have the bombs for it.

          If a party isn’t scared into submission by the initial bombing run there’s not much to follow it up. See also Israel tapping out against Iran after two weeks.

          The West is also scared to touch Yemen any further. Likely because the Houhis can destroy more shipping than just what goes through the Red Sea.

      No, zionazis always murder regardless of circumstance. Except when they get removed by resistance fighters.

      As you said, Israel will kill Palestinians or any Arab they find convenient regardless.

      For those in the crosshairs, opposition to genocide is not optional. Yemen has a very long history of fighting imperialist ambitions, they are one of the few with genuine solidarity that dare to take direct action to end the genocide and Zionist colonialism

        Again, I gave the impression I’m against it.

        They will find the excuse to attack and murder whoever they want, as you said. And this time this will be the excuse they will use. And praise Yemen for standing up against them despite what will come.
