About 30 Israeli settlers were injured by a supersonic missile fired from Yemen that landed in Tel Aviv, early Saturday morning.

Israel’s Hebrew Radio said 30 Israelis were injured by a rocket fired from Yemen on Tel Aviv, while dozens panicked as they fled to underground shelters.

Direct hit in Tel Aviv – and quite a massive explosion. The missile appears to be landing at an amazing speed: 5 (state-of-the-art) interceptors failed to pinpoint it.

The missile is being described as a direct hit which the Israeli air defences such as David’s Sling and the Cardboard Dome failed to intercept as admitted by the Israeli army in much commentary on the social media

Israeli army spokesman Avichay Adraee confirmed that attempts failed to stop the incoming ballistic missile and the impact activated the alarm bells across central Israel.

Meanwhile the Israeli Haaretz newspaper reported that ambulance teams transferred more than 20 injured settlers to the Wolfson and Ichilov hospitals after a rocket from Yemen fell in Tel Aviv as reported in Quds Press.

The Israeli police confirmed as well that “damage” occurred to a number of homes as a result of the rocket explosion in the Bnei Brak area to the east of Tel Aviv.

Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree announced, in a statement, that their fighters carried out “a military operation targeting a military site of the Israeli enemy in the occupied Jaffa area with a hypersonic ballistic missile.”

The announcement was made after the Houthis struck central and southern Israel with multiple drones on Friday and Thursday in response to the Israeli airstrikes on Sana’a and Al Hudaydah in Yemen.

Since the war on Gaza was launched soon after 7 October, 2023, the Houthis struck Israel with 200 missiles and more than 170 explosive drones.

Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree announced that the group targetted Tel Aviv with five drones at dawn, Thursday. He confirmed the success of the operation, however the Israeli army admited only two drones falling on the city.

As broadcast on Al Masirah Saree said that the Yemeni air force attacked a vital target in occupied Jaffa with a number of drones, stressing the operation achieved its goals by the arrival of the drones without the enemy detecting or shooting them down.

The military spokesman added the Jaffa operation comes within the fifth phase of the “Promised Conquest and Holy Jihad” battle, and stressed the continuation of operations until the aggression on Gaza and Lebanon stops.

The Israeli army said it had detected two drones in Bat Yam, south of Tel Aviv, adding it intercepted one and the second fell in an open area.

In turn, the Israeli media reported that five drones were launched from Yemen at dawn and exploded at low altitude in the airspace over the Tel Aviv area.

The Houthi group announced Wednesday, its missile force targeted the Nevatim base and the Rotem industrial zone in the Negev with missiles.

The group said that the operation was carried out with the “Quds 5” winged missiles that were revealed for the first time, and that the targeting operation was accurate and the missiles reached their targets.

It explained the “Quds 5” missile used in the operation was developed and is capable of hitting any target in occupied Palestine.

In the past few months, the Houthis have carried out several attacks with drones and missiles on Israeli targets, and in July a drone hit a building in Tel Aviv, killing an Israeli according to Al Jazeera.
