Yemen targets another ship in latest anti-Israel operation
Yemen’s Army says they have attacked another ship in waters around the country in a continuation of operations retaliating against the Israeli genocide in the besieged Gaza Strip.
Yahya Saree, spokesman for Yemen’s armed forces, announced the development while addressing pro-Palestine demonstrators in the Yemeni Capital’s Al-Sabeen Square on Friday.
“The naval, the missile, and UAV forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces, with the help of Allah Almighty, carried out a joint military operation in the Gulf of Aden, targeting the ship Lobivia with several ballistic missiles and drones, and thanks to Allah the hit was accurate and direct,” he said.
The ship was targeted because the company owning it had violated Yemen’s ban on entry of ships to the Israeli ports, according to the spokesman.
Saree said the continuation of the Israeli genocide in Gaza would strengthen the resolve of the Yemeni people, their army, and their faithful leadership to conduct more operations in support of the Palestinians.
The Yemeni spokesman also called on the Arab and Islamic nations to perform their religious, humanitarian, and moral duty towards the Palestinian people and participate actively in the battle against the Israeli regime.
Saree concluded his remarks by stressing that Yemen’s operations against Israel will not stop unless the aggression is stopped and the siege imposed on Palestinians in Gaza is lifted.
The latest operation came on the back of an unprecedented drone attack by the Arab country on Tel Aviv earlier on Friday.
Saree announced earlier that they fired a new drone called 'Yafa', which is capable of bypassing the enemy's interception systems.
That attack killed one person and injured ten others, according to the regime.
Mohammad Al-Bukhaiti, a member of the Ansarullah movement’s political bureau, told Al-Arabi that the attack was a message to Israeli Premiere Benjamin Netanyahu that the continuation of the aggression on Gaza and the starvation of its residents would not benefit the Israeli entity.
He said the message of this operation is that the continuation of the massacres and genocide in Gaza will lead to the demise of the entity.
Yemen has been conducting anti-Israel operations since October, in an attempt to bring a halt to the ongoing massacre of Gazans at the hands of the Zionist regime.
