الحوثيون يعلنون مسؤوليتهم عن هجوم تل أبيب

July 19, 2024 - أعلنت الميليشيا اليمنية المدعومة من إيران مسؤوليتها عن غارة قاتلة بطائرة مسيرة بعيدة المدى أصابت جزءاً من وسط تل أبيب.

The explosion, which did not trigger air raid alarms, occurred hours after the Israeli military confirmed it had killed a senior commander of the Iran-backed Hezbollah militia in southern Lebanon.

The Israeli official said the military was still investigating why the drone did not trigger the alarm, but initial reports suggested the drone was identified but the sirens were not sounded due to human error.

A spokesman for Yemen's Houthi militants said the strike was carried out using a new drone called "Yafa", which was capable of bypassing interception systems and undetectable by radars, according to Reuters.
