News - Yemen: The Yemeni Armed Forces announced the execution of a military operation targeting an Israeli enemy military objective in the occupied area of "Yaffa."

The spokesperson for the Armed Forces, Brigadier General Yahya Sare'e, stated in a statement that the Yemeni Armed Forces' Air Force targeted an Israeli enemy military objective in the occupied area of "Yaffa" using a drone. He added that the operation successfully achieved its objective.

He explained that the Armed Forces affirm their readiness for a prolonged war against this enemy, striving in the cause of Allah, supporting the fighters in Gaza, and defending the dear Yemen. He emphasized that their efforts will not cease until the aggression against Gaza stops, the siege is lifted.

Since the onset of the Israeli regime’s war on Gaza on October 7, 2023—after Palestinian resistance movements launched Operation Al-Aqsa Storm—Yemen has declared unwavering support for Palestine’s struggle against occupation. The Yemeni Armed Forces have launched regular strikes against Israel as part of a phased escalation campaign.

This campaign has included a strict maritime blockade of Israeli shipping, effectively preventing vessels from reaching Israeli ports. In the initial phase, Yemeni forces targeted the port of Umm al-Rashrash in southern occupied Palestine. This escalation marks the culmination of a year-long series of actions across five phases.

Yemeni military advancements have now enabled strikes deep within Israel, reaching Jaffa (referred to by Israel as Tel Aviv) and other key locations. These attacks have utilized hypersonic missiles and advanced drones with significant destructive capabilities, targeting ports and critical military infrastructure throughout occupied Palestine.
