Yemen strikes ‘vital target’ in Tel Aviv with Yaffa drones
Yemen’s Armed Forces have struck with several drones a “vital target” in the center of the Israeli-occupied territories in support of Palestinian and Lebanese people amid the Tel Aviv regime’s nearly year-long onslaught on the besieged Gaza Strip and southern Lebanon.
Brigadier General Yahya Saree, the spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces, announced in a televised statement that the operation targeted Tel Aviv with Yaffa drones at dawn on Thursday and “successfully achieved its goals.”
“The Drone Air Force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a military operation targeting a vital target in ... ‘Tel Aviv’ in the occupied Palestine using several Yaffa-type drones,” Saree said. “The operation successfully achieved its goals, with the drones reaching their targets without the enemy being able to intercept or down them.”
Stressing that the retaliatory attack was part of the fifth phase of Yemen’s support for Operation al-Aqsa Storm in October last year, the statement said, “The Yemeni Armed Forces salute the heroic fighters on the fronts in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and Iraq, and affirm their continued execution of military operations against the Israeli enemy" until the aggression against Gaza and Lebanon is stopped and the siege on Gaza is lifted.
As we approach the anniversary of Operation al-Aqsa Storm, Saree said, the Yemeni Armed Forces renew their call on all Arab and Muslim nations to take a stand in support of the Palestinian and Lebanese people in the coming days.

Yemeni Armed Forces had a day earlier launched a series of attacks on Israeli military positions deep inside the occupied territories, firing three new domestically-developed Quds-5 cruise missiles at the strategic installations.
Saree said the missiles had managed to strike the designated targets precisely, despite the Zionist regime’s attempts to conceal the losses it sustained in the aftermath of the missile attack.
Yemenis have declared their open support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched a devastating war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, after the territory’s Palestinian resistance movements carried out surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the occupying entity.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have said they will not stop their attacks until unrelenting Israeli ground and aerial offensives in Gaza end.
So far, Israel has killed at least 41,689 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 96,625 others in Gaza.
