Yemeni forces strike Ben Gurion Airport with hypersonic missile

SANAA, Dec. 27 (YPA) – The Yemeni Armed Forces announced on Friday the execution of three significant military operations, including the targeting of Ben Gurion Airport in occupied Palestine with a hypersonic missile, a drone strike on a military target in occupied Yaffa, and the interception of a ship in the Arabian Sea that violated the blockade imposed on enemy ports.

In a televised statement, Armed Forces spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Sarie confirmed a successful missile strike targeting Ben Gurion Airport in Jaffa with the Palestine-2 hypersonic missile.

The operation reportedly caused casualties, disrupted air traffic, and demonstrated the missile’s ability to penetrate the Israeli defense systems, Sreie said.

A simultaneous drone strike hit a key military target in occupied Jaffa, achieving its objectives with precision. Another drone operation targeted the vessel Santa Ursula in the Arabian Sea near Socotra Island for violating the blockade on occupied Palestinian ports. The strike was described as a direct hit.

The Armed Forces emphasized that these operations are part of their fifth phase of support for Gaza in the ongoing battle for liberation. They also confirmed that the strikes are a response to Israeli aggression in Yemen, including recent airstrikes on civilian infrastructure in Sana’a and Hodeida that resulted in civilian casualties.
