Yemeni Armed Forces target "Eilat" in southern occupied Palestine with
ballistic missiles and warn the Israelis to expect more until the
aggression on Gaza stops.</p><div>
<p>The Yemeni Armed Forces launched a number of ballistic missiles at
several sensitive Israeli targets south of the occupied Palestinian
territories, including military targets in "Eilat", the Yemeni Armed
Forces spokesperson Yahya Saree said on Thursday.</p>
<p>Saree confirmed that the operation "achieved its objectives
successfully and resulted in direct hits despite the enemy's attempts to
cover it up."</p>
<p>The spokesperson emphasized that the Armed Forces will continue to
carry out military operations in support of the Palestinian people's
just cause until the Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip ceases.</p>

<p>In a separate incident, a drone targeted a building in "Eilat"
earlier today, resulting in material damage, while the Israeli
authorities claimed no casualties. Israeli media reported that sirens
were not activated, prompting the settlement's mayor to express concern
over the issue and request an investigation into what caused this
failure.</p>
<p>Commenting on the operation, whose source remains unknown, Israeli
media outlets warned that Yemen's attempts to target the entity will
continue, despite all layers of anti-missile and electronic warfare
protection and military aircraft conducting patrols in the Red Sea.</p>
<p>The outlets added that all surveillance and detection systems to
monitor air, sea, and land threats, despite being directed toward Yemen,
have failed to detect the drone that reached "Eilat".</p>

<p>Simultaneously, Israeli <em>Channel 13</em> stated that "Israel" is still "puzzled about how the drone reached Eilat."</p>
<p>The channel's military commentator, Alon Ben David, pointed out that
the Israeli Air Force has directed all airborne and ground detection
devices, as well as radar-equipped naval vessels, toward Yemen, but the
origin of the drone that reached "Eilat" has not been discovered yet.</p>
<p>The outlet also noted that attempts from Yemen to target "Eilat" are
ongoing, stating that "intercepting a ballistic missile is a complex
event."</p>
<p>On Wednesday, Saree announced that the armed forces shot down a <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/sanaa-downs-us-drone--vows-continued-operations-supporting-p">US MQ-9 drone</a> over the country's territorial waters, which was carrying out spy activities in support of the Israeli occupation entity.</p>
<p>In a statement, Saree stressed that no hostilities will deter Yemen
from carrying out operations against the Israeli occupation entity in
support of the oppressed Palestinian people.</p>
<p>US officials initially denied knowledge of a missing American drone
but then later admitted the event took place when the Yemeni Armed
Forces released footage of the operation.</p>
