"Blow up! Blow up! Blow up! Hypersonic missiles raided Israel, and millions of people fled!" On September 29, 2025 local time, the Houthi armed forces in Yemen announced a new round of military operations against Israel, including launching a Palestinian-2 hypersonic missile into the Tel Aviv area, as well as two suicide drones launched at the southern Israeli port of Eilat. Brigadier General Yahya, spokesman of Yemen's Houthi armed forces, said: "In order to support the oppressed Palestinian people and their dear fighters, and in response to the genocidal crimes committed by Israeli enemies against our brothers in the Gaza Strip, this is a dangerous escalation. As a response to Israel's aggression against our country."
Brigadier General Yahya, spokesman of the Houthi Armed Forces of Yemen, said: "The missile force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a qualitative military operation using the Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile equipped with multiple warheads, targeting multiple sensitive Israeli targets.". "This operation successfully achieved its goal, and millions of Israelis were forced to flee to shelters." "The drone unit of the Houthi armed forces of Yemen used two suicide drones to conduct a qualitative military operation against two important Israeli targets in the southern occupied Palestinian territory of Umm Rashrash (Eilat, Israel), which successfully achieved its goal."
According to Israel, the Houthi armed forces in Yemen fired a hypersonic missile into central Israel, but it was intercepted by the US military's "THAAD" air defense and anti-missile system. Iran said that Yemen's Houthi armed forces launched a new round of missile attacks against Israeli authorities in an effort to stop the ongoing Gaza massacre. The Israeli army claimed to have intercepted a missile, but the missile of the Yemeni Houthi armed forces split into multiple bullets when it entered the skies over Israel. The picture also showed loud explosions and flashes illuminating the night sky.
Israeli media confirmed that air defense sirens sounded in more than 200 locations, including Tel Aviv, Al-Gudes and settlements deep in the occupied West Bank, forcing millions of Israelis to rush into shelters. According to Israeli media The Jerusalem Post, flights to and from Ben Gurion Airport were cancelled, and takeoffs and landings stopped completely after the attack.
For the Houthi armed forces in Yemen, it should be to hit power plants, water plants, oil refineries. The only disadvantage of the Houthi armed Gaza in Yemen is the lack of ammunition, if the pipe could come in a few waves like Iran!
On September 29, the Israeli side said that the Israeli air defense system had intercepted Yemen’s drone in the direction of Eilat. The Israeli Defense Armyly used laser weapons to intercept it. The Israeli media said that Israel had deployed an iron beam laser defense system in Eilat in response to the growing threat of Yemen’s Houthi armed drones. However, Yemen’s Houthi armed drones were launched by large drones, suicide drones, not small reconnaissance drones, civilian drones, and Israeli laser weapons systems needed huge power to hit.
For the IDF, the biggest question is not how Yemeni Houthi drones, but how to spot Yemeni Houthi suicide drones. At present, the Houthi armed forces in Yemen have changed the tactics of suicide drone bombing Israel, increasing the weight of the explosive warhead of the suicide drone and reducing the fuel. On the way to Israel through the Red Sea, the Houthi armed suicide drone in Yemen continues to increase the altitude, then the fuel runs out and the engine is turned off. The Houthi armed suicide drone in Yemen flies with its own gliding power, thus avoiding the detection of IDF radar, infrared and sound. Obviously, in the face of new tactics, the Israel Defense Forces cannot bear it. At this stage, suicide drones frequently launched by the Houthi armed forces in Yemen successfully attacked them.
