Explained: Why IDF Never Used Hypersonic Missiles on Iran & Yemen| Unbelievable Details
Following the Israeli Air Force's (IAF) massive 'Operation Black Flag' air campaign across Yemen, a significant question has emerged: With global powers like Russia, China, and North Korea racing to deploy hypersonic missiles, why does Israel, a military powerhouse, continue to rely on conventional fighter jets?
This report delves into the core of Israel's military doctrine to uncover the answer.
The analysis reveals that Israel's strategic decision is not a sign of weakness, but a calculated choice based on its unique geopolitical reality.
The IAF's elite fleet, including advanced F-15, F-16, and F-35 fighter jets, offers unparalleled flexibility and precision for striking nearby threats in Gaza, Yemen, or Iran.
Unlike hypersonic missiles, which are designed for targets thousands of kilometers away, jets allow for real-time target adjustments, significantly reducing collateral damage against groups like the Houthis.
This adaptability was proven during the 2025 strikes on Iranian sites.

Nasser Al-Laham, the prominent head of Al Mayadeen TVâs Palestine bureau, has been arrested by Israeli forces following a violent pre-dawn raid on his home. According to reports by Al Mayadeen, Shin Bet officers stormed the house and destroyed belongings while searching for the studio from where Al-Laham appeared on-air.
The arrest comes amid increasing crackdowns on pro-resistance media voices in the occupied territories. Al-Laham was transferred to the notorious Ofer Court in the occupied West Bank, where his detention was extended until Thursday. The operation has triggered outrage among journalists, human rights groups, and regional media networks, who condemn the targeting of press freedom. Al Mayadeen, a Beirut-based channel often critical of Israel and aligned with the Resistance Axis, has described the arrest as an attempt to silence Palestinian voices. This development adds further tension to an already volatile West Bank, where media suppression is becoming increasingly common.

At the 17th BRICS Summit in Rio, Turkey's Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan delivered a chilling warning: Israelâs unchecked aggression could spiral into global instability. Fidan accused Tel Aviv of reversing decades of development through its war in Gaza and said multilateral institutions are now facing a legitimacy crisis.
He called on the international community to act before itâs too late. His warning came amid growing BRICS concerns over AI weaponization, global peace, and economic fairness. Fidan alleged that Israel has used artificial intelligence as a tool of warfare, fueling unrest from Gaza to Yemen. With over 57,000 dead in Gaza and rising tensions across Lebanon, Syria, and Iran, BRICS leaders are urging urgent reforms. The summit, already focused on AI governance and peacekeeping, now confronts the fallout of Israelâs regional ambitions and the Westâs blind eye.

Massive pro-Palestine protests erupted outside the White House as Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu is visiting Washington to meet Donald Trump. Protesters waved Palestinian flags, chanted âFree, free Palestine,â and held signs reading âStop Arming Israelâ and âWanted: Netanyahu.â With Gaza's death toll soaring past 57,000, demonstrators condemned U.S. support for Israelâs military campaign. As Netanyahu faces ICC war crime warrants and a genocide case at the ICJ, global outrage mountsâwhile Trump pushes a six-day Gaza truce plan.

In a dramatic escalation, Yemenâs Armed Forces have claimed responsibility for a massive drone and missile assault targeting key Israeli infrastructure, including Ben Gurion Airport, Ashdod Port, and the Eilat Port. Yemeni military spokesman Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree confirmed the use of the indigenous âPalestine 2â hypersonic missile and locally built UAVs in retaliation against Israeli strikes on Yemen and in solidarity with Gaza. The strike forced Israel to shut down its primary international airport, with sirens sounding across the Dead Sea area. The Yemeni Armed Forces declared their readiness for prolonged confrontation and reiterated a vow to continue strategic blockades and attacks until Israel halts its Gaza offensive. With over 57,000 Palestinians dead since October 2023, the operation underscores a widening regional war and a unified resistance front across West Asia. Israeli interceptors reportedly failed to stop the attacks, raising serious concerns about defense gaps.

In a stunning development, the U.S. has halted a critical weapons shipment to Ukraine that had already been staged in Poland, according to a bombshell report by the Wall Street Journal. The cache includes over two dozen PAC-3 Patriot missiles, more than two dozen Stinger air-defense systems, Hellfire missiles, and 90+ AIM air-to-air missiles designated for Ukraineâs F-16 fighter jets. U.S. administration and congressional officials reportedly confirmed the freeze, which aligns with the ongoing strategic review under the âAmerica Firstâ doctrine. The move comes amid rising Ukrainian frustration, with officials accusing Washington of endangering their defense readiness. The freeze has triggered intense geopolitical anxiety, with Kyiv urging clarity while Moscow eyes an advantage.

Ukraine has confirmed the loss of another U.S.-made F-16 fighter jet during a combat mission repelling a Russian airstrike. This marks the third F-16 crash since the West began supplying the jets. Communication was lost mid-mission as the pilot destroyed three targets before an emergency forced him to eject. He avoided civilian casualties and is recovering. The incident raises concerns over Ukraineâs ability to match Russiaâs superior airpower with limited, delayed F-16 deliveries. An investigation is underway as Ukraine struggles to deploy the jets effectively.

Tensions erupt as Yemenâs Ansarullah movement responds to 20 Israeli airstrikes with a chilling vow to ârob the Zionists of their sleep.â Following strikes on Houthi ports, power stations, and surveillance assets, senior Yemeni officials promise direct retaliation. In this video, we break down the unfolding escalation, the official statements, and the full speech that has the region bracing for overnight retaliation. Could this be the start of a wider regional conflict?

In a dramatic overnight operation, Israeli warplanes struck six high-value Houthi targets across Yemen, including three strategic Red Sea ports, the Ras Kathib power plant, and the radar system aboard the seized Galaxy Leader cargo ship. The IDF claims the shipâs radar was used for maritime surveillance and missile coordination.
The strikes â completed in under an hour â mark one of Israelâs most significant escalations in the Red Sea conflict zone. Massive explosions were reported in Hodeidah, Ras Isa, and As-Salif as Israeli forces targeted what they say were key military supply routes and Iranian-linked infrastructure.
This comes amid rising tensions across the region and renewed Houthi missile launches toward Israeli territory. What does this mean for the wider Middle East conflict? Is a broader war looming in the Red Sea?

In a dramatic and unprecedented move, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved major airstrikes on Houthi targets in Yemen while flying to the United States aboard the âWing of Zionâ aircraft. According to the PMâs office, Netanyahu received critical operational updates and gave the final go-ahead for "Operation Black Flag" while en route to Washington for a high-stakes meeting with Donald Trump. The operation was launched in response to continuous missile attacks by the Iran-backed Houthis on Israel. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz confirmed that the strikes, involving 20 fighter jets, targeted key Houthi infrastructure, ports in Hudaydah, and the Galaxy Leader ship, which was seized by the Houthis in 2023. The coordinated attack is being described as a major blow to the Houthi rebels. The Houthis have responded swiftly and fiercely. While their media outlets confirmed the Israeli strikes, they retaliated by launching a massive wave of missiles towards Israel, triggering air defense systems across the country. In a claim that has created serious panic, RT News reported that at least one of the Houthi missiles successfully hit its target inside Israel.
This sudden escalation opens a dangerous new front in the Middle East, coming only weeks after a fragile ceasefire was established between Israel and Iran. With Israel now engaged in a direct, full-blown conflict with the Houthis in Yemen, the entire region is on high alert for what happens next.

Just hours after launching the massive "Operation Black Flag" airstrikes on Houthi targets in Yemen, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu departs for Washington to meet with President Donald Trump.
In his statement before leaving, Netanyahu reaffirmed his mission: to crush Hamas, confront Iran and Hezbollah, bring all hostages home, and ensure Gaza will never again threaten Israel. This marks his third meeting with Trump since the 2024 elections â a critical moment for U.S.-Israel coordination as regional tensions boil over.
With fire raining on the Red Sea and new alliances forming, Netanyahuâs visit could reshape the Middle East â militarily and diplomatically.

Ceasefire hopes dim as the first round of indirect talks between Israel and Hamas ends inconclusively in Doha, Qatar. According to Palestinian sources, the Israeli delegation arrived without the authority to finalize a deal â casting serious doubt on Netanyahuâs commitment to ending the war. Meanwhile, Gaza remains under siege, with over 57,000 Palestinians killed, infrastructure destroyed, and hostages still held captive. As Netanyahu heads to Washington for a third meeting with President Trump, pressure mounts from both international mediators and citizens at home demanding action.
Is a deal still possible â or is peace slipping further away?
