Yemen's Wounding Zionist Regime's Security Structure

Yemeni operations in support of the oppressed Palestinian people have played a key role in dismantling the concept of America's support for the Zionist Regime and have dealt a blow to the security theory of this regime.

TEHRAN (Defapress) - Yemen's armed forces have targeted Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport with 10 hypersonic ballistic missiles in the past week, forcing the Zionist regime to extend the flight ban at this airport.

More importantly, Yemen's armed forces announced that if the Zionist enemy continues to insist on escalating its crimes including killings, starvation, and expanding brutal military operations against Gaza's people, they will insist on their decision to expand their attacks until the aggressions end and the siege on Gaza's people is lifted.

Yemen's missile attacks have not only set off alarm sirens across various areas of the occupied territories but have also doubled the terror among Zionists; Yemeni operations are driving hundreds of thousands of Zionists to shelters. But the question is, how do Yemen's missiles contribute to exhausting the Israeli enemy and increasing its losses?

The role of Yemen's missiles in eroding the Zionist regime's defensive capabilities and increasing its losses can be examined from two aspects: First, Yemenis have succeeded in exhausting the Iron Dome and David's Sling defense systems; because each missile of these systems costs between 2 to 3 million dollars; meaning Tel Aviv has spent about 20 to 30 million dollars just on interception within one week. In addition, we must add the direct and indirect economic damages and the widespread panic of thousands of Zionists fleeing to shelters.

The second point is that Yemen's missiles have taken the enemy's most important airports out of service, which itself has played a key role in increasing considerable direct and indirect economic damages of about 50 million dollars daily.

Of course, following these, we must also add the reluctance of international airlines and suspension of their flights to the occupied territories, which has continued since May 4 for an indefinite period and may completely destroy the Zionist regime's summer tourism industry.

Accordingly, this casts a heavy, negative shadow on all tourism-related economic sectors and tourists, increasing ticket prices and dissatisfaction of stranded passengers outside the occupied territories as well as those wanting to travel from the occupied lands to other destinations.

In this regard, the Zionist channel "Makan" has announced direct and indirect damages to the tourism sector so far at about 12 billion shekels, i.e., 3 billion dollars.

The Israeli army imposes high-security control on its media with every interception operation and censors the damages, except for the precise operation on Ben Gurion Airport where people worldwide witnessed through media and social media the scene of defense failures and the explosion of a Yemeni missile (whose name remains unknown) at the airport; a missile that penetrated four layers of defense and interception and created a 25-meter-deep crater in Zionist awareness.

This operation created a major strategic transformation in the military and security fields, dealing a heavy blow to the security of occupied territories. Accordingly, Avigdor Lieberman, head of the Yisrael Beiteinu party and member of the Israeli Knesset, admitted that Netanyahu's government has failed following Yemen's missile attack and Israel's deterrence is disappearing. Meanwhile, Netanyahu is helpless in restoring security and had previously said just one Yemeni missile after 17 months of war is enough to send hundreds of thousands of Zionists to shelters.

Also in another context, Yemen after the Oman agreement managed to somehow create a military and diplomatic separation between Washington and Tel Aviv; an issue that made the Zionist enemy see itself alone against Yemeni operations supporting the Palestinian nation which it calls the Yemeni threat.

The message of Yemen's missile attack on the Zionist regime is escalation against escalation and expansion against expansion. Accordingly, Yemen's operations have significantly increased following the Zionist army's announcement of intensifying and expanding pressure against Gaza's people, and the clearest message this missile attack can convey to the Zionist enemy is that Yemen intends to fully retaliate in kind.

This means if Zionist crimes such as genocide, starvation, and expansion of operational areas intensify, Yemen's operations will also expand deeper into occupied territories; especially to Tel Aviv, and particularly against airports within the framework of implementing a no-fly zone that Yemen's armed forces announced simultaneously with the expansion of enemy aggressions.

Another important and noteworthy point is that initially, it seemed that implementing such operations would be difficult, just as they considered the naval blockade difficult and even impossible, but with God's help, we don't consider this beyond Yemeni forces' capabilities. Implementing this decision means imposing international isolation against the Zionist regime under the shadow of dozens of international airlines refusing to fly there and vice versa; an issue exactly like the ban on shipping companies from passing through the Zionist regime's ports.

On the other hand, the Zionist enemy might want to repeat its desperate efforts with illusions of deterring Yemen through new attacks, and this is not unlikely, especially since it has recently threatened Yemeni ports too, but it's clear and proven that no operation against Yemen will be deterrent or stop Yemen from supporting the Palestinian nation, and the enemy has experienced this.

Finally, Yemen still stands by its initial position of full support for Palestine, even after the agreement with America which in Thursday's speech of Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi reiterated Yemen's lofty ideal of supporting Gaza that "it will continue and not diminish one bit."
