Yemen: The Yemeni Armed Forces have initiated a new deterrence path against the Zionist enemy by targeting northern occupied Palestine for the first time since the beginning of Yemeni retaliatory operations supporting the Palestinian people and their courageous resistance. This move confirms that Yemen is prepared to implement new strategies that will disorient the enemy and force it to halt its crimes in Gaza.

This new operation carries further dimensions, including the resumption of joint operations with the Iraqi Islamic Resistance, which disrupts the enemy's defensive options.

According to a statement by Yemeni Armed Forces spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Sare'e on Tuesday afternoon, three operations were carried out deep within the Zionist entity, with two targeting northern Palestine and one in the south, in collaboration with the Iraqi Islamic Resistance. This marks the first-ever strike on northern occupied Palestine since the Al-Aqsa Flood operations began.

Notably, these two strikes on northern occupied Palestine occurred following the ceasefire between the Zionist entity and the Lebanese Islamic Resistance. This strong message to the enemy, combined with the military strike, suggests that resistance fronts will continue to hit all enemy positions, and the cessation of Hezbollah's rockets does not mean the end of missile strikes from other jihadist fronts targeting northern Palestine or any other part of the enemy's territory.

In light of Zionist reports discussing the difficulties the enemy faces in rehabilitating northern occupied Palestine and returning settlers, this Yemeni-Iraqi operation further complicates the enemy's situation. These reports indicate that it will take at least 10 years to restore life to the north, relying on military and security stability for reconstruction. However, the return of missiles to northern Palestine will make this impossible for the enemy, especially if the Yemeni deterrence continues targeting this "sensitive spot," which has troubled the enemy for the past 14 months, preventing any military victory in Gaza, despite the missile strikes carried out by the Lebanese Islamic Resistance.

Should resistance momentum increase in targeting northern Palestine, the enemy will face a new setback, following the blow it took from Hezbollah, which it attempted to patch with a ceasefire agreement. Continued missile strikes on the north will leave the enemy's plans in limbo, with settlers remaining displaced in distant hotels and apartments, draining vast financial resources. This will force Netanyahu's government into an ongoing financial crisis, requiring continuous additions to the national budget to cover these costs, in addition to the political, security, and military challenges that require massive expenditures. Air defense systems in the region will increase costs and exacerbate Israeli military and security failures, especially since these systems have proven ineffective during previous Lebanese escalations, let alone against advanced supersonic or ballistic missiles, which the latest American and Western defense systems failed to intercept.

This continued deterrence path targeting northern occupied Palestine will inevitably place the enemy in new difficulties and make its plan to isolate Gaza impossible. This strategy also reinforces the equation proposed by the Martyr Leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, who emphasized that the return of Zionist settlers to northern Palestine and the normalization of life there is contingent upon lifting the siege and ending aggression against Gaza. Therefore, the enemy finds itself facing a real dilemma, with only one option remaining: halting its crimes against Gaza.

In the southern part of the operation, targeting a vital Zionist facility in the area of Umm Rashrash (known as "Eilat" to the enemy), this strike further demonstrates the development of Yemeni capabilities and tightens the noose on the enemy, which is suffering from a maritime blockade that has crippled its vital port, the only access to the Red Sea.

This operation proves that Yemen has not only enforced a suffocating maritime blockade and neutralized Umm Rashrash port but has expanded its options by targeting sensitive and critical sites in the region to increase the enemy's losses and tighten its grip.

The three operations, in both northern and southern occupied Palestine, suggest a significant and qualitative development in the Yemeni Armed Forces. The weapons used in all three operations were varied, and all achieved their objectives without any interference from American, Israeli, or Western defenses. This was evident from the enemy's failure to report any detection of the missiles or drones that struck the north and south, unlike previous operations, where they reported intercepting what they called "hostile aerial targets" on their way to their destinations in "occupied Palestine." This remarkable development will present the enemy and its sponsors with significant challenges and force them into exhausting efforts to track the Yemeni Armed Forces' options. Keeping up with these options has become impossible in light of the continuous evolution of Yemen's deterrence strategies, which American and Western military officials have described as "shocking," "astonishing," and "exhausting."

With the return of joint operations between the Yemeni Armed Forces and the Iraqi Islamic Resistance, it is clear to the enemy that resistance fronts will remain vigilant, delivering unexpected strikes and diversifying military tactics, making it clear that isolating Gaza will remain an unattainable dream. The best course of action is to halt the crimes against the Palestinian people and comply with the full demands of the Palestinian resistance factions, which now hold significant leverage. These resistance fronts, entrenched in the vanguard of the battle against the Zionist enemy and its sponsors, are backed by men who have fulfilled their vows to Allah.
