Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: According to the Russian state media, Ryanovsti, quoting a military source close to the Houthis, this Yemen-based group has successfully tested a hypersonic missile.

 

"The missile forces successfully tested this missile group, which can reach a speed of Mach 8 and operate on solid fuel," the source said.

 

This source added: The Houthis plan to use this missile, which they build themselves, for military operations in the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden, and the Arabian Sea, as well as targets in Israel.

 

It should be noted that the Houthis have been attacking ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden since November in protest of the Israeli regime's war against Gaza.
