Within hours,Yemen’s Houthi claim second hypersonic missile strike on Israel

On Wednesday, Yemen’s Houthi movement (Ansarallah) claimed responsibility for a hypersonic missile strike targeting an Israeli military site in Yaffa, marking the second attack within 24 hours.

Houthi military spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced the launch of a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile, stating, “The operation has successfully achieved its objectives.”

He added that the group remains prepared to confront the “Israeli enemy in the coming period.”

Israeli authorities have not yet commented on the incident.

The strike follows an escalation in Houthi operations, with the group last week claiming responsibility for two drone attacks on an Israeli military site in Ashkelon, and a projectile in Tel Aviv injuring dozens.
