Yemeni armed forces announced that they have launched a military operation against American warships sailing in the Arabian Sea as part of their campaign to force the “Israeli” entity to end its aggression against the people of Gaza.

Spokesman of Yemeni Armed Forces Brigadier General Yahya Saree said on Tuesday that the Yemeni forces carried out “a qualitative military operation targeting two American warships in the Red Sea through our naval forces, missile force, and drone air force.”

“The operation was executed with many naval missiles and drones,” he added.

The spokesman said the operation was carried out “in support of the oppressed Palestinian people and as part of the response to the American-British aggression against our country.”

“The Yemeni Armed Forces will not hesitate to expand their operations against all hostile targets in response to the calls of the free from our great people and our Islamic nation in providing support and assistance to the Palestinian people who are still under aggression and siege to this moment,” Saree said.

He added that the operations of the “Yemeni Armed Forces will not stop until the aggression ceases and the siege on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip is lifted.”
