Hamas chief Yehya Sinwar has congratulated Yemen’s Ansarullah movement for its missile attack on Israel and said this sent a message to their foe.
The Ansarullah movement hit central Israel with a new hypersonic ballistic missile on Sunday for the first time.
“I congratulate you on your success in reaching the depth of the enemy entity,” Sinwar said in a letter to Ansarullah leader Abdel-Malek al-Houthi.
The Hamas chief said that Israel’s plans to neutralize the resistance group has failed.
“I assure you that the resistance is fine. We have prepared ourselves to fight a long battle of attrition,” he said.
Yemeni army spokesperson Yahya Sarea said the missile that targeted central Israel travelled 2,040 km (1270 miles) in just 11-1/2 minutes. Air raid sirens sounded in Tel Aviv and across central Israel, sending residents running for shelter.
Israeli media said the regime’s air defenses failed to destroy the ballistic missile launched from Yemen although it was an anticipated attack.
