Yemen imposes air blockade on Israel… A Historic precedent shifts Balance of conflict
[06/ May/2025]
Sana’a - Saba:
In an unprecedented move in the history of the Arab-Zionist conflict, Yemen has made history by declaring a comprehensive air blockade on the Israeli occupation entity.

This decisive response comes amid escalating aggression against the Palestinian people and the expansion of atrocities in Gaza Strip.

Yemen’s decision confirms that the era of Israeli aerial dominance is over. The enemy’s skies are now exposed to a Yemeni force that has established new equations from the heart of Sana’a, standing in solidarity with the oppressed Palestinian people.

A decade ago, American, Saudi, and Emirati warplanes filled Yemen’s skies, marking the beginning of a brutal aggression and siege orchestrated from Washington and announced by the coalition spokesperson, Ahmed Al-Asiri. Today, after years of resilience and transformation, Yemen’s Armed Forces in Sana’a have issued a strategic decision to impose a blockade on Israel—turning Yemen from a besieged nation into a force that besieges the enemy itself.

The air blockade follows a precision strike by Yemen’s missile forces on Ben Gurion Airport in Lod using a hypersonic ballistic missile. The strike hit its target with remarkable accuracy, sparking widespread panic among over three million settlers, who scrambled to shelters as Zionist security and military forces stood stunned.

The strike, laden with symbolism, dominated global media and digital platforms, hailed as one of the most significant turning points in the confrontation.

Throughout history, Yemen has been a coveted land for invaders and occupiers. Yet, like towering mountains, the Yemeni people have withstood the fiercest storms—from the Roman and Ottoman empires to the British, all of whom left defeated and humiliated. Now, the American-Zionist enemy and its allies may test their fate in Yemen, only to find that what was written about the Yemenis was no coincidence, but an undeniable reality.

Thanks to divine support and the dedication of its leadership and loyal men, Yemen possesses advanced military capabilities that have redrawn the equation of deterrence. No longer just a regional player, Yemen has emerged as a formidable force, imposing aerial isolation on the Zionist enemy with a blockade that took effect last night.

Yemen’s decision will upend international aviation, forcing global airlines to reroute flights and incur additional costs. This alone imposes economic burdens on the Zionist entity, weakens its status as a regional transit hub, threatens its logistical stability, and deals a severe blow to its tourism sector.

The missile strike on Ben Gurion Airport was not only a message to the enemy but also a warning to the U.S. and Britain: Stop undermining global security, meddling in the region, and bankrolling the Zionist entity with billions in weapons used to slaughter Palestinians and besiege Gaza.

Images of the explosion and the ensuing Israeli military disarray marked a qualitative shift in Arab-Islamic deterrence. For the first time, a missile of such sophistication and audacity struck one of the entity’s most vital airports. The attack was not merely tactical but a signal that Yemen has become a regional actor commanding military initiative.

Military observers confirmed the operation as a strategic shock at a critical moment, shattering the enemy’s arrogance after boasting it had neutralized threats from Damascus to Sana’a. The response proved Yemen is a direct partner in the battle for Palestine—not limited to media support but actively engaged in real warfare.

Having already shut down maritime routes to the Zionist, American, and British enemies in the Red Sea, Arabian Sea, Gulf of Aden, and Indian Ocean, Sana’a has now sealed the skies with a comprehensive air blockade. The enemy must realize its airports, ports, and airspace are no longer secure.

This is the battle of the "Promised Victory and Sacred Jihad," advancing with unwavering steps toward triumph as Yemen’s strategic options multiply. The conflict has yet to reveal all its cards, and Yemen still holds many surprises to overturn the equations—should American and Zionist arrogance persist.
