Yemeni Conflict: News #3

9 people were injured on their way to shelters after the missile attack from Yemen.

Yemeni Armed Forces Spokesman:

The missile force of  the Yemeni Armed Forces targeted a military target of the Israeli enemy in the occupied area of Yaffa using a hypersonic ballistic missile, type Palestine 2.

The operation has successfully achieved its objectives.

The Yemeni Armed Forces, in light of the ongoing war of genocide against our people in the Gaza Strip, confirm that they will continue their military operations against the Israeli enemy during the coming period and that these operations will not stop unless the aggression on Gaza is stopped and the siege is lifted.

Hamid al-Ahmar, the leader of the Yemeni Reform Party affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood & Turkey, is talking about his visit to Saudi Arabia and holding a meeting between different groups to end the "Houthi rule" in Yemen.

*If a Muslim cannot logically examine the developments in the region, while holding a Quran in his hand, he will declare war on his Muslim brothers in favor of the enemy and stab those who are on the front lines of the battle against the enemy. As you all can see, those who were silent in the face of the massacre of thousands of Muslims in Gaza and Lebanon have now woken up and are calling for jihad against other Muslims to protect Israel.*

/ The Yemeni army attacked Tel Aviv with a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile.

This morning, on December 25, the Yemeni missile force fired a Palestine-2 ballistic missile toward a military target in the city of Tel Aviv.

After the attack, sirens blared in over 200 locations in the occupied territories, causing delays for several flights at Ben Gurion Airport.

Nine individuals were injured while seeking shelter and from panic attacks.

CCTV footage of the Yemeni armed forces' missile strike on Tel Aviv reveals that Israel's Arrow air defense systems successfully intercepted a Yemeni ballistic missile. The video also shows the missile debris falling into the occupied territories.

Statistics indicate that this missile attack marks the 55th aerial operation by the Yemeni army in occupied territories of Palestine using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and suicide drones.

/ The Yemeni army carried out two suicide drone attacks on Tel Aviv and the industrial area of Ashkelon. Footage from Ashkelon shows a successful strike on the industrial site, as the Yemeni drone managed to penetrate Israeli air defenses and hit its target!!!

Statistics indicate that these two attacks marks the 56th and 57th aerial operation by the Yemeni army in occupied territories of Palestine using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and suicide drones.

Looks like the USS Harry Truman has, probably for safety reasons, retreated, sorry, repositioned, to the north of the Red Sea. Apparently the French carrier is also in the Red Sea.

— // NEW: Israeli airstrikes against Sanaa International Airport in Yemen, which occurred about four hours ago, killed at least two airport personnel and injured a United Nations plane co-pilot

The strikes coincided with the presence of the director of the World Health Organization and the UN Resident Coordinator at the airport.

Hebrew media reports that 'about 100' Israeli aircraft participated in the attack.

'We will also hunt down all the Houthi leaders, hit them as we have done elsewhere, and no one will be able to evade Israel's long arm.'

In recent long-range attacks, Israel has used F-15s and F-16s.
For some reason, it does not use F-35s.

| Director of the WHO:

Yemen’s Sana'a airport was bombed when we were about to board our plane. One of our crew members was injured in the bombing.

We will have to wait in Sana'a until the damage is repaired.

@FotrosResistanec

Mohammed Abdul Salam, the official spokesman for Ansarullah:

Targeting Sanaa International Airport and other civilian infrastructure is a Zionist crime against all Yemeni people, and this is policy of the criminal enemy, the murderer of millions of Palestinians, and the perpetrator of the Gaza genocide.

If the Zionist enemy thinks that its crimes will prevent Yemen from supporting Gaza, it is an illusion, and Yemen will not abandon its religious and humanitarian principles.

First use of THAAD in anger



EDIT

Actually the second. The first was against a Yemini missile into the UAE a few years back.

$12.6 million for a THAAD. $2,000 for a Houthi missile.

Now add this: Lockheed Martin produces around 50-60 THAADs a year, while Iran is scaling up its missile factories to pump out thousands of ballistic missiles annually. The Houthis, with limited resources, are still assembling missiles faster than DC and Tel Aviv can shoot them down.

Here’s the dagger: The Empire spends $12.6 million per shot, while its adversaries barely crack $2,000. For every billion-dollar missile defense system deployed, the Houthis and Iran flood the battlefield with bargain-basement missiles.

This isn’t just bad math; it’s a war economy designed to collapse under its own weight. Outspent, outproduced, and outmaneuvered.

There are many costs involved . There was a long mathematical formulas . As an example then , the cost of an Iron bomb dropped by jet versus the cost of an airport in Yemen ? There is also the ability of each side to replace or repair damaged equipment . Ansar Allah have a duty to protect themselves too . So I think they should stop attacks against Israel , and see if Israel stops attacks against them . But if not , then put more effort into AD .

— / NEW: Yemen's Ansarullah have announced that they targeted the Nevatim air base in the Negev region with a 'Palestine- 2' hypersonic ballistic missile.

THAAD System Deployed: U.S. Assists Israel with First Official Use

A military reporter for Israel’s Channel 11 released a video showing the activation of the American THAAD system to intercept a Yemeni missile over the occupied territories during Friday morning’s Yemeni attack on Tel Aviv.

In mid-October, the United States deployed two or three THAAD anti-ballistic missile system batteries, along with about 100 American military personnel, in the occupied territories. Initially, the THAAD system was deployed to counter potential Iranian retaliatory attacks on sensitive Israeli sites. However, it seems that following the failure of the Israeli Arrow-2 and Arrow-3 anti-ballistic missile systems to counter Yemeni hypersonic missiles, the THAAD system was brought in to assist.

According to Israeli sources, this marks the first activation of the THAAD system since its deployment in occupied Palestine. In the video, American military personnel excitedly exclaimed, “18 years waiting for this!”

But how effective is THAAD really?

In short, against one or two ballistic missiles, the THAAD system is quite effective. However, it struggles against a large number of incoming missiles.

Each THAAD system battery has 6 launchers, each with 8 missiles, totaling 48 missiles per battery. The United States has 7 THAAD batteries, which are strategically important for defending sensitive American locations. Lockheed Martin, the manufacturer of THAAD, has produced and delivered about 800 THAAD missiles to the US Army. Of these, 336 are needed for the 7 American batteries, with the remainder in reserve.

Given this information, it’s clear why the US has provided Israel with two to three batteries of the THAAD system. The production of THAAD systems and missiles is limited, and the United States cannot supply all the THAADs and missiles it needs to Israel.

If Israel has three THAAD batteries, that means 144 interceptor missiles are ready for use, supplemented by a small portion of the US THAAD missile reserves.

As we said, the primary purpose of deploying these systems in Israel is to counter Iranian attacks. However, the system can easily become overwhelmed by a large volume of missiles, such as 200 in a single operational mission, significantly reducing its defensive capabilities. The key to the success of Yemeni attacks, similar to Iran’s approach, lies in effectively saturating these systems. The more hypersonic missiles are fired, the higher the success rate of Yemeni operations!

Ben Gurion International Airport has temporarily halted all civilian flights leaving from or landing in Tel Aviv.
