News – Yemen:
The Washington Post, citing an unnamed Zionist official, reported that the Yemeni forces are more technologically advanced than many imagine and should not be underestimated.
Experts told the newspaper on Friday that Yemen’s drones, missiles, and projectiles have managed to evade Israeli air defense systems, questioning “how to defeat an adversary armed with a stockpile of inexpensive and readily available weapons.”
Former Zionist National Security Council official Yoel Guzansky stated that the Yemeni forces aim to wage a war of attrition against Israel and want to continue firing.
Guzansky added that the cost of this war of attrition is extremely high for Israel compared to the relatively low-cost drones or missiles launched by Yemeni forces, which cost only a few thousand dollars each. In contrast, each Israeli interception operation costs tens of thousands of dollars at minimum.
The Zionist official warned that Yemeni forces have the capability to prevail in a war of attrition against Israel, raising the question: “How can Israel avoid falling into Yemen’s trap?”
Military historian Dani Orbach from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem noted that “Yemen is unlike the enemies at our borders; it is more than a thousand miles away.” He added that “Yemenis live in a mountainous country with limited infrastructure. Even if we launch strikes against them, it will not significantly hinder them.”
Orbach further explained that Israel’s situation has become more complicated due to the reduced involvement of the United States and Britain, which had previously led strikes on Yemen.
The historian also highlighted a shortage of interceptive missiles, citing global conflicts where the U.S. plans to use these resources.
Previously, former Zionist National Security Council head Giora Eiland warned that Yemenis possess enough missiles for two years, stressing the need to form an international coalition to impose a complete blockade on Yemen.
The Israeli newspaper Maariv previously outlined three challenges Israel faces concerning Yemen. The first relates to Yemen’s military capabilities, the second to the lack of high-quality intelligence about Yemen, and the third to Israel’s inability to develop a “policy of regional climate change” to form a coalition against Yemen.
Since Israel began its devastating war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, Yemen has openly expressed support for Palestine’s resistance against the Israeli occupation. The ongoing aggression in Gaza has claimed the lives of at least 45,361 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
In addition to missile strikes, Yemen has also targeted ships linked to Israel, the United States, and the United Kingdom, aiming to force an end to the Tel Aviv regime’s genocidal war on Gaza.
The US-British coalition continues its aggression on Yemen in support of the Israeli occupation, attempting to deter Yemen from supporting the Palestinian people.
However, the Yemeni Armed Forces have vowed to continue their attacks until Israel halts its ground and aerial offensives in Gaza.
