An illegal Israeli settler has reportedly been killed and 30 others injured during Yemeni Armed Forces’ recent strikes against the occupied Palestinian territories, including city of Tel Aviv, the Israeli regime’s economic heart.

The fatality was caused in the city of Rishon LeTsiyon, which is located eight kilometers (five miles) south of Tel Aviv, on Friday, the Israeli regime’s Arutz Sheva news website reported.

It identified the settler as 68-year-old Binyamin Bleacher, who was killed as a result of cardiac arrest “following the sirens which sounded” in the central part of the occupied territories, ”warning of an incoming missile.”

“As the sirens sounded, Binyamin left his apartment with his brother and mother, and evacuated to the stairwell – the safest place for many people whose homes lack private bomb shelters,” the report said.

The Israeli regime’s Kan broadcaster also said as many as 30 illegal settlers were injured in the city of Jaffa near Tel Aviv after it was struck by a Yemeni hypersonic missile.

The latter strike was the third one to be conducted by the Yemeni forces against the occupied territories over a short timespan.

The forces have been conducting numerous such strikes since October 7, 2023, when the Israeli regime began taking the Gaza Strip under a United States-backed genocidal war that has so far claimed the lives of more than 45,200 Palestinians, mostly women and children.

The operations have seen the forces hitting strategic and sensitive targets across the occupied territories as well as the Israeli ships and the vessels heading towards the territories.

The strikes have mounted enormous pressure on the Israeli regime by forcing the vessels trying to ship military hardware and other commodities to the territories to take the longer route around Africa.

The operations have, among other things, effectively shut down the port of Eilat, which is located in the southernmost tip of the occupied territories.

Following the recent strikes, Israeli warplanes carried out intense aerial assaults against the Haziz and Dhahban power stations near the Yemeni capital Sana’a as well as the Hudaydah port and Ras Isa oil terminal along the Arab country’s western coastline.

Fourteen warplanes, alongside refuelers and spy planes, flew some 2,000 kilometers (1,242 miles) and dropped over 60 munitions on targets inside Yemen, the Israeli army said at the time.

Later, American and British warplanes also reportedly attacked Sana’a’s Attan area in fresh pro-Israeli aggression against the country that resulted in a massive explosion.

The Israeli military reacted to the report by denying responsibility for the attack.

The US Central Command later claimed the attack, saying it reflected the country’s commitment to “protecting” American forces, Washington’s regional “partners,” and “international shipping.”

It, however, alleged that the “precision” attack had targeted a “missile storage facility,” and a “command and control center” belonging to Yemen’s popular resistance Ansarullah group.

Earlier this week, Kan cited Israeli “security” officials as saying that the regime was preparing itself to attack Yemen again, trying this time to involve other parties in the aggression too.

Recently, the Yemen Red Sea Ports Corporation said during a press conference that the aggression against al-Hudaydah had incurred damages running up to around $313 million, severely damaging the port’s infrastructures and adversely affecting the lives of millions of Yemeni civilians.
