Yemeni Armed Forces announce hypersonic missile strike on Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv

Yemen’s Armed Forces have claimed responsibility for a successful missile strike on Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, using a newly unveiled hypersonic ballistic missile named “Palestine‑2.”
The announcement was made by Brigadier General Yahya Saree, spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces, in a statement broadcast on the Yemeni Al‑Masirah network.
According to the statement, the special military operation targeted Al‑Lod Airport (Ben Gurion) in the “occupied Yafa region” of Tel Aviv.
“The operation was successfully carried out and, by the grace of God, caused millions of Zionists to flee to shelters and brought airport operations to a halt,” Saree declared.
The Yemeni military said the strike was conducted with the newly revealed hypersonic missile “Palestine‑2”, marking a significant advancement in Yemen’s missile capabilities.
The Yemeni Armed Forces reiterated that these operations are part of their continued military campaign in solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza and the wider Resistance front.
“Yemen will continue its operations in support of the oppressed and besieged Palestinian people, backing the Resistance and strengthening their steadfastness,” the statement read.
The strike comes amid heightened regional tensions and a growing wave of solidarity operations by resistance movements across the Middle East in response to the Israeli war on Gaza.
Ben Gurion Airport, the main international gateway to the occupied territories, has previously been a target of rocket and drone attacks by resistance factions, but the introduction of hypersonic missile technology by Yemen represents a major escalation in long‑range strike capabilities. (ILKHA)
