Saree explained that “Operation Hurricane Yemen” targeted the Dubai and Abu Dhabi airports, the Musaffah oil refinery in Abu Dhabi, and a number of important and sensitive Emirati sites and facilities”.

“The successful operation was carried out with five ballistic missiles and a large number of drones,” the Yemeni Army spokesman declared, adding that “the operation had successfully achieved its objective”.

Saree went on to say, “The Armed Forces, while implementing what they promised, renewed their warning to the countries of aggression that they would receive more painful strikes”.
