Houthis Say They Attacked Israel With Cruise Missiles

Illustrative image.

The Houthis (Ansar Allah) in Yemen announced on October 2 that they had launched cruise missiles at Israel in support of the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.

Three Quds-5 cruise missiles were launched at military positions “in the depth of the Zionist entity in occupied Palestine,” Houthi military spokesman Brigade General Yahya Sarea said in a statement, alleging that the missiles “managed to reach their targets successfully.”

The attack came less than a day after Iran launched a large-scale attack against Israel with some 200 ballistic missiles, targeting several key intelligence and military bases across the country and sending around ten million people into bomb shelters.

“The Yemeni Armed Forces bless the second Iranian operation of the True Promise against the Israeli enemy and confirm their readiness to participate in any joint military operations against the Israeli enemy in victory for the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples and in response to any Israeli aggression targeting the support fronts,” Brig. Gen. Sarea said.

“The Yemeni Armed Forces confirm that the continued American and British support for the Israeli enemy puts American and British interests in the region under fire and that they will not hesitate, with the help of God Almighty, to expand their military operations against the Israeli enemy and those behind it until the aggression stops and the siege on Gaza is lifted, as well as the aggression on Lebanon stops,” he added.

Multiple interceptions were reported over Israel on October 1 and 2. However, it is still unclear if any of them was linked to the Houthis attack.

Since November, the Houthis, who are backed by Iran, have attacked dozens of vessels affiliated with Israel or owned by the United States and the United Kingdom in the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea in response to the Israeli war on Gaza.

The group also launched dozens of drones and missiles at Israel and shot down at least eleven American-made combat drones over Yemen and nearby waters.

The U.S. and the UK have carried out hundreds of strikes against Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen since January. Israel also launched two waves of strikes against civilian infrastructure in the western Yemeni province of al-Hodeidah in July and September.

Despite killing nearly 60 people in Yemen, the U.S.-led aerial campaign failed to deter the Houthis or degrade their military capabilities.

they haven’t even had time to assess all the damage. there are reports of multiple f35’s being hit by the iranians. some are total losses. but it’s worth noting: this is an answer to the latest israeli attacks on gaza and lebanon which transpired after the iranian attack.

Mowaten

come on man, this is not cool, those f35s were civilians. i may suspect you’re an antisemite!

anon

yes, this is a houthi war crime motivated entirely by anti semitism. those f35s were used entirely for civilian purposes, crop spraying, towing sky signs to celebrate people’s birthdays, and taking old age pensioners for joy rides. it’s an outrage.

i think this was just a test to see how depleted those iron dome batteries were.

those patriots used will have cost more billions. the amerikunts only produce about 500 a year and most have gone to ukraine.

usa budú teraz v poriadnych sračkách. bojovať súčasne na dvoch frontoch? hm … rusko im bude púšťať žilou čo sa týka finančných zdrojov. irán bude robiť to isté. už teraz usa nemajú dostatok finančných prostriedkov. to dokazuje krádež ruských štátnych hmotných rezerv, ktoré chcú používať na financovanie ukrajiny. rus si po svoje nakoniec príde. svetu mier!!!

oct 7th shattered the myth of the isr security apparatus, apr 13th destroyed the myth of the iron dome. isr has been struggling for a year to restore its “deterrence”, foaming at the mouth in jubilation after the beirut attacks. the attacks by iran settled them back in their boots. the hits on the gas platforms is a direct message to the west : retaliate and your oil fields in saudi will know the same fate. do you really want to destroy your cherished way of life for the sake of isr?

here here… the jews has now been seen for the cretin that he is… and israel will no longer exist in 30 years… it is simply not possible. and te real exodus of the jew will begin… and he will be spread across the lands never to have a fake promised home land.

there is zero exodus of jews from the bible… history does not support the claim. this exodus we witness and the jew soon will be eradicated

q_prime

looks like exodus of so-called jews from the bible is a myth. the fact there is no mention of the egyptian pyramids only highlighted the scam. even the name pharaoh is actually from yemen.

Gurki

noone should allow exodus of this scum again. instead kill them where they are ! they are like a deadly bacteria or virus – if you allow that shit to spread it will nest and infect other parts of the world. therefore: no ! simply burn it to death where it is.

muslims need to unite, &christians too need to unite & both need to exterminate the satanist cult called jewry once and for all – starting with eradicating israel and all its hook-nosed insect-like disgusting inhabitants. that’s the only real solution.

israeli iron dome was totally useless against iranian missiles. next time, heavier payloads may be used. iran has exposed israeli weakness. it can overwhelm and penetrate zionist air defenses with ease

really, the biggest message here is: israel’s biggest regional deterrent was it’s nuclear weapons and it is no longer a deterrent. and the myth of legend of its air defenses which were mostly based on skewed and false weapons system efficiency /performance data cannot protect them from a nuclear counterattack.

now that the air defense capability has been exposed. and iran is suspected of already having “the bomb” … it changes the whole regional dynamic. again, the neocons and the israeli accelerated the outcome they most dreaded — again.

Rabbi 4 Skin

like i have said for a year- arab muslims are useless and pathetic.

it takes the persians in 1 hour to show what the gutless muslim arab scum should have been doing from day 1 after the bombing of gaza.

arab nations are weak cowards and will never try and hurt israel… just try and tickle tem.

thank you persians for giving humans around the world some relief and some pain for the jew
