Yemeni Ballistic Missile Strikes Multiple Key Targets in ‘israel’

On Thursday night, the Yemeni Armed Forces announced that their recent operation was conducted as a reaction to what they described as Israeli aggression towards Yemen and the continuing genocide in the Gaza Strip.

Yemeni forces issued a directive to all civilian and military enterprises, as well as vessels operating within the Red Sea and Arabian Sea, or those passing through these waters, to disclose their identities.

The forces emphasized their commitment to intensifying operations in defense of the nation and in solidarity with Gaza, continuing until the Israeli offensive against the Palestinian territory concludes and the blockade is lifted.

Failure to comply may result in being targeted and will entail full accountability for their actions.

In response to a recent escalation, Israeli military action targeted residential areas and civilian infrastructure in Yemen’s capital, resulting in the deaths of at least eight individuals and leaving 142 others injured.

Yemeni forces have initiated a strategic maritime blockade aimed at halting the supply of military resources to Israel amidst the escalating conflict in Gaza that erupted in October 2023. This move comes as they call on the international community to address the severe humanitarian crisis unfolding in the region.

Simultaneously, they launched a series of missile and drone strikes on strategic targets within the Israeli-controlled areas, signaling their backing for the Palestinians in Gaza.

The Yemeni Armed Forces have firmly declared their intention to persist with their operations until Israel ceases its ground and air attacks in Gaza.

According to the Gaza Strip’s health ministry, at least 65,208 Palestinians, predominantly women and children, have been killed in the region since October 2023.
