TEHRAN, Apr. 30 (MNA) – The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) conducted a series of operations in support of the Palestinian people and their Resistance, the spokesperson for the Yemeni military Brigadier General Yahya Saree stated on Tuesday.

In their operations, the Yemeni Unmanned Air Force targeted two United States warships in the Red Sea, Saree revealed. 

The YAF's Missile Force, Navy, and Unmanned Air Force launched a joint operation targeting the CYCLADES bulk carrier in the Red Sea, achieving precise hits to the target. The last update for the location of the bulk carrier was made 12 days ago, according to maritime trade concerned sites, Al Mayadeen reported.

CYCLADES was targeted after breaching the decision imposed by the YAF, barring ships from sailing toward or from Israeli-occupied ports. The ship was heading to the Umm al-Rashrash (Eilat) port on April 21, according to Saree.

The ship's crew changed identification credentials to state that it is heading to a port other than the Eilat port, however, after continued monitoring, the YAF determined the real destination of the ship, warning it against sailing toward Eilat.

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 after the territory’s Palestinian Resistance movements carried out a surprise retaliatory attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, against the occupying entity.

Yemeni Armed Forces have said that they won’t stop their attacks until unrelenting Israeli ground and aerial offensives in Gaza, which have killed at least 27,948 people and wounded another 67,459 individuals, come to an end.

The United States and Britain in December announced a military coalition to target Yemen in support of Israel.
