Yemen Warns of Escalation Over Banned Iran Hunting Weapons
The Yemeni armed forces warned of a new Houthi escalation that threatens civil aviation safety and travelers in the region. They reported detecting the use of advanced Iranian air defense weapons, specifically the "Jawla" system, launched from Al Hudaydah Province toward international air corridors south of the Red Sea. They confirmed that these systems, which operate using thermal tracking and can launch missiles with a duration of up to 25 minutes, employ innovative tactics that pose a threat to civilian and military aircraft, including United Nations and humanitarian organization flights. The statement also noted that this escalation coincides with Iranian threats to target aviation services. They emphasized that targeting the airspace south of the Red Sea constitutes a direct threat to international air navigation, calling on the international community to take urgent measures to protect civil aviation safety.
