The group’s spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, stated that “the missile reached its target, and the interception systems failed to neutralize it.”
Third Strike in 12 Hours
This operation marks the third military strike carried out by Yemeni forces within a 12-hour period. Brig. Gen. Saree emphasized the escalation in response to Israeli aggression, vowing continued operations until the blockade on Gaza is lifted and attacks cease.

Saree concluded by affirming that Yemeni forces, supported by the Yemeni people, will intensify their military efforts against the Israeli enemy to achieve these objectives, regardless of the consequences.
Earlier on Tuesday, Israeli media reported that a missile launched from Yemen disrupted air traffic at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv.
In recent weeks, the Yemeni Armed Forces have intensified their pro-Palestinian operations, targeting Israeli military sites in the occupied territories with advanced hypersonic ballistic missiles.
In response, the United States and United Kingdom have conducted indiscriminate airstrikes on Yemen to counter these operations and support the Israeli enemy military. Despite these sustained attacks, Yemeni forces have remained steadfast, continuing to target vessels linked to Israel in the Red Sea.
Since the war began in October 2023, Israeli actions have killed at least 46,584 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured over 109,731 others in Gaza.
