Yemen's Military Support for Gaza, Comprehensive Deterrence Strategy to Exhaust the Enemy
Gaza – SABA: A Palestinian expert praised Yemen's military support for the Gaza Strip, which has moved beyond symbolic solidarity to direct and organized military action in clear support of Gaza's battle against the Israeli enemy, making Yemen an integral part of the struggle alongside Palestine. The Palestinian news agency Shehab quoted Palestinian expert Rami Abu Zubaida as saying that Yemen's sustained military backing for Gaza reflects a fundamental shift in the role of the Yemeni Armed Forces, which no longer limit themselves to political stances or media rhetoric but have instead taken on an impactful operational role. Abu Zubaida stated, "The continuation of Yemen's military support for Gaza through ballistic missile and drone launches—despite the regional preoccupation with the repercussions of the Iranian-Israeli confrontation—demonstrates that the Yemeni Armed Forces have become an active player with independent decision-making and significant offensive capabilities." He pointed out that "Yemeni forces escalated their operations even after the U.S. strike on Iran, showing no retreat in the face of direct Israeli threats." He emphasized that the strikes targeting Ben Gurion Airport (Lod) and other strategic sites deep inside Israeli territory "are not merely emotional gestures of solidarity with Gaza, but part of a comprehensive deterrence strategy aimed at exhausting the enemy and creating an active southern front.' Abu Zubaida argued that the Yemeni Armed Forces have redefined Israel's security from a new geographical perspective, revealing qualitative shifts in offensive positioning across the region—especially given the lack of decisive responses from major powers and their preoccupation with diplomatic calculations. Coinciding with these analyses, the Yemeni Armed Forces announced last night the execution of four military operations, including a missile strike on Ben Gurion Airport (Lod) and three drone attacks targeting Jaffa, Ashkelon, and Umm al-Rashrash (Eilat). Despite direct threats and airstrikes, the Yemeni Armed Forces continue to target Israeli depth with missiles and drones, providing tangible support to Gaza, which has faced a genocidal war by the occupation army since October 7, 2023. The Yemeni Armed Forces had previously declared an aerial blockade on the Israeli occupation entity by targeting Israeli airports, particularly Ben Gurion (Lod)—marking a qualitative shift in the tools of regional resistance against Israeli aggression. It is evident that Yemen has reshaped the priorities of the conflict. Once perceived as a marginal player, it has now become a central actor in the deterrence equation, as observers note. While international decision-making capitals are preoccupied with de-escalation efforts, the Yemeni people choose to continue military and political confrontation, sending a clear message: "Gaza is not alone, and the missiles coming from Yemen are not merely symbolic—they are an essential part of the battle."
