Yemen Launches New Cruise Missiles Deep Into Israeli Positions
The missile unit of the Yemeni army has targeted military positions of the Israeli regime located in occupied Palestine with three Quds-5 cruise missiles.
The latest statement issued by the Yemeni Armed Forces, which was published on Wednesday morning of October 2, 2024, the missile unit carried out this attack in support of the oppressed people of Palestine and Lebanon.
Spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces Brigadier General Yahya Saree commented on the strike, noting that the cruise missiles successfully reached their targets, and the Israeli enemy remained silent regarding the results of the retaliatory attack.
He also stated that the missiles hit their intended targets, pointing to the Iranians’ latest attack on the Israeli regime, he said that the Yemeni Armed Forces congratulate the Iranian armed forces for their operation against Israel, which is called True Promise 2.
He further expressed Yemen’s readiness to participate in any joint military operations to assist the people of Palestine and Lebanon and to respond to any Israeli strikes on the Islamic fronts, who are supporting the Palestinian and the Lebanese people.
In his concluding remarks, the spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces issued a direct threat to the US-UK coalition, asserting that ongoing support from the American and British governments for the Israeli enemy puts their interests in the region at risk. Those backing the occupying regime should understand that as long as aggressions against Palestine and Lebanon continue, and the blockade of the Gaza Strip is not lifted, the Yemeni Armed Forces’ attacks will not cease, and the Yemenis will not hesitate to expand military operations against the Israeli enemy, with God’s help.
The Yemeni forces’ recent attack marks the 30th aerial operation, which targeted the occupying regime’s positions in occupied Palestine using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and suicide drones.
This is the first time the Yemeni army has utilized the Quds-5 cruise missile, and no images of the missile have been released up until now. It is probable that the cruise missile is similar to one of the cruise missiles manufactured by Iran, with an extended range of over 1,900 kilometers.
The military operations of the Yemeni Armed Forces in support of the oppressed Palestinian people and resistance groups against the Israeli regime kicked off on October 19, 2023, in occupied Palestine and along the maritime route from the Gulf of Aden to the Red Sea. The retaliatory operations peaked with the seizure of the Israeli-affiliated ship Galaxy Leader as well as incessant missile, drone, and suicide drone attacks on over 150 vessels linked to the Israeli regime, leading to a halt in shipping for Israeli companies via the Red Sea.
