Yemeni Houthis Strike Israeli Nevatim Airbase with Hypersonic Missile
Houthi forces announce successful ballistic missile strike on Nevatim Airbase, vowing continued operations in support of Gaza amid Israeli escalation.
Watan-The Yemeni Houthi group announced on Sunday that it had targeted Israel’s Nevatim Airbase with a hypersonic ballistic missile, claiming the operation “successfully achieved its goal.”
In a televised statement, Yahya Saree, the military spokesman for the Houthis, said:“The missile forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a military operation targeting Nevatim Airbase in the Negev region of southern occupied Palestine with a hypersonic ballistic missile.”
He emphasized that the operation “achieved its objective successfully,” although Israeli authorities did not immediately comment on the Houthi group’s statement.
This marks the second strike on the Israeli airbase within 24 hours. On Saturday morning, the Houthis had already announced the targeting of Nevatim with a hypersonic ballistic missile, named “Palestine 2,” which they also said “reached its target successfully.”
