The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announced on May 25 that its air defenses had intercepted another ballistic missile that was launched by the Houthis (Ansar Allah) from Yemen.

Sirens sounded in the Jerusalem area, southern West Bank settlements, and settlements near the Dead Sea amid the missile attack. No casualties were reported. However, a photo posted to social networks showed debris from what appears to be an Israeli Arrow interceptor that landed in the South Hebron Hills area of the West Bank.

The Houthis later announced that they had targeted Ben Gurion Airport in central Israel with a “hypersonic ballistic missile” in response to the war in the Gaza Strip.

Hypersonic missiles travel and maneuver at least five times faster than the speed of sound at low altitudes in the atmosphere which makes them extremely difficult to track and intercept.

“The operation successfully achieved its goal, thanks to God, and caused millions of usurping Zionists to flee to shelters, halting air traffic at the airport,” Houthi military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree said in a statement.

“The Yemeni Armed Forces affirm that they will continue to blockade air traffic to Lod [Ben Gurion] Airport, and that most airlines have complied with the ban in recent days. This has significantly impacted air traffic at the aforementioned airport,” he added.

Since March 18, when the IDF resumed its offensive against Hamas in Gaza, the Houthis have launched 39 ballistic missiles and at least 10 suicide drones at Israel.

Only one of the missiles managed to reach its target, hitting Ben Gurion on May 4. Eight people were wounded and operations at the airport were disturbed. The Houthis later announced “a comprehensive aerial blockade” on Israel, forcing many airlines to suspend flights to the country altogether.

Israel resumed strikes on Yemen after the strike on the airport. Around the same time, the United States suddenly halted an operation launched in mid-March against the Houthis.

At least three waves of Israeli strikes hit in recent weeks infrastructure in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen, from the ports in al-Hodeidah, to cement factories, power stations and Sanaa International Airport in the Yemeni capital. The Houthis were not deterred, however, as evident by their latest attack.

israel is a genocidal country

Poopshie

what happens when a zero sum policy goes into force? houthi missiles loaded with nerve agents, designed to slowly act over months and slowly snuff out those exposed, their own final solution, if there are no more zionists to support, america might go home and stop meddling in genocidal projects when faced with it themselves.

for centuries usury was banned in feudal europe. israël was recreated because during the 18th century the western world was conquered by the bourgeoise after a series of revolutions. the bankers are at the top of the bourgeoisy. the jewish torah promote usury to enslave the goyim (deut 15:6). it’s not just the middle east.
