Yemen's Houthi group has escalated regional tensions with a bold military strike using its newly unveiled 'Palestine 2' hypersonic ballistic missile, targeting multiple sites in Israel's Jaffa area, according to spokesperson Yahya Sarea. The fission multi-warhead weapon marks a significant leap in the group's capabilities amid ongoing Middle East conflicts.
🌍 The attack, reported Saturday, highlights growing volatility in the region as the Houthis continue their 'solidarity campaign' with Gaza. Analysts compare the hypersonic tech to scenes from 'Top Gun: Maverick' – but with real-world stakes. While Israel hasn't confirmed damage assessments, the strike raises questions about evolving defense systems and regional power dynamics.
💡 Why it matters: Hypersonic missiles travel at Mach 5+ speeds, making interception extremely difficult. This development could reshape security calculations across the Middle East – and beyond. Stay tuned as we track this fast-moving story.
