Yemen’s Army Attacked Tel Aviv With A New Hypersonic Missile!
The Yemeni army claimed responsibility for a missile attack that targeted central Israel on September 15 morning. A hypersonic missile was used in this operation.
According to what Israelis published, the Yemeni missile landed in the Kfar Daniel area. Kfar Daniel is located 7-8 kilometers southeast of Ben Gurion Airport.
Ben Gurion Airport is the largest Israeli airport, and most of the US weapons aid is delivered to the Zionists at this airport. So it is safe to say that the target of this attack was Ben Gurion Airport.
In a statement, the Yemen’s military spokesman Brigade General Yahya Sarea announced that the group launched a new type of hypersonic ballistic missile at a “military target” close to the city of Tel Aviv in support of the Palestinian enclave of the Gaza Strip, noting that Israeli air defense failed to intercept the missile.
The missile crossed a distance of 2,040 kilometers within 11 minutes and 30 seconds, the spokesman said, adding that the attack “caused a state of fear and panic among the Zionists, as more than two million Zionists headed to shelters for the first time in the history of the Israeli enemy.”
Based on the information stated by Brig. Gen. Saree, the missile traveled at a speed of 10,643 kilometers per hour, or just over Mach 8,6
The Yemeni army released the video and pictures of the Palestine-2 missile for the first time, while unveiling this missile, it announced that it used this missile in the attack on Tel Aviv.
According to the information announced by the Yemeni armed forces, the “Palestine 2” missile has a range of 2,150 kilometers and is a two-stage solid fueled missile.
A military probe was also launched by Israeli army to ascertain why the Yemeni missile was not intercepted before it reached Israeli airspace, or whether it was in fact intercepted, either fully or partially.
As a result of the initial investigation, the Israeli army announced that one of the Arrow system missiles hit the incoming missile, but it did not destroy the missile completely. The Israeli Air Force officially confirmed that the attempt to intercept the Yemeni missile failed because it did not destroy it completely. The Israeli army denied that the missile was hypersonic.
Since the outbreak of the Israeli aggression on Gaza last October, the Ansar Allah-backed Yemeni army (AKA Houthis) have been waging a military campaign against Israel, targeting merchant vessels linked to the regime and launching direct strikes against the occupied territories using suicide drones and missiles.
Late on July 19, a suicide drone launched by the Yemeni army hit a building near U.S. Embassy office in Tel Aviv, killing a man and wounding several others. In response, Israeli warplanes with the help of US, launched deadly strikes against civilian targets in the western Yemeni city of Al Hudaydah.
Israel will likely respond to the new missile attack in Tel Aviv; However, it is highly unlikely that the strikes will affected the Yemeni army’s capabilities.
Yemen’s missile attack on Tel Aviv is an important warning to Israel: The Arrow anti-ballistic systems and David’s Sling defense systems used a total of more than 20 interceptor missiles to counter the Yemeni hypersonic missile, but failed. Tel Aviv is no longer safe!
