Iron Dome Fails! Houthis ATTACK Israel, Hit 3 Key Targets | Israeli Defenses Crushed In DEADLY Raid

Yemen’s Armed Forces have delivered a bold message to Israel and the world by penetrating Tel Aviv’s missile shield with explosive-laden drones that struck three high-value targets — including a sensitive Israeli site in Jaffa, military infrastructure in Ashkelon, and a strategic zone in the Negev Desert. Brigadier General Yahya Saree confirmed the success of the operations and warned of continued strikes until the siege and genocide in Gaza end. The strikes form part of Yemen’s relentless campaign of solidarity with Palestine, which has also involved firing advanced ballistic and hypersonic missiles. Meanwhile, Yemen has issued a clarion call to Muslims and Arabs worldwide to rise, protest, and break the Gaza blockade. The message is clear — Gaza’s resistance is not alone, and regional escalation is mounting fast.
