Israeli Enemy’s ‘Preliminary Investigation’ Dismissed as Cover-Up for Ramon Airport Failure

The Zionist entity is facing mounting embarrassment after its military claimed that the Yemeni drone which struck Ramon Airport on Sunday had been “detected but not classified as hostile.” Analysts and observers have dismissed the statement as a desperate attempt to mask what they describe as a catastrophic failure of Israel’s multi-layered air defense systems.

According to the Israeli army’s version, a “preliminary investigation” suggested the drone was tracked before the strike but not identified as a threat. Yet military experts note that such a claim is inconsistent with Israel’s constant state of high alert. “The occupation routinely activates its air defenses against even minor radar anomalies—sometimes even against birds. To suggest they detected a drone but chose not to intercept it is implausible,” one observer noted.

The contradiction is further exposed by the army’s own announcements. Just an hour before the Ramon Airport blast, Israeli forces publicly acknowledged detecting multiple Yemeni drones approaching from Sinai, triggering heightened readiness across the occupied territories. This timeline, critics argue, undermines the credibility of the “non-hostile classification” narrative.

The Ramon incident has dealt a major blow to the Israeli enemy’s prestige, highlighting the vulnerability of US-supplied air defense systems such as Iron Dome, David’s Sling, and Arrow. For Yemen, the successful strike represents not only a technological breakthrough but also a psychological victory, proving its ability to bypass some of the world’s most advanced detection and interception networks.

For the Zionist entity, however, the event is being described as a “strategic breach.” Despite attempts at damage control, the admission that a Yemeni drone penetrated undetected into southern occupied Palestine reinforces the growing perception of Israel’s declining deterrence.
