US, UK aggression won't go unpunished: Yemeni Armed Forces

TEHRAN, Jan. 12 (MNA) – Following the joint US-UK aggression against Yemen overnight, the spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced that the aggression won't go unpunished.

"The American-British enemy has perpetrated a heinous attack on the Republic of Yemen, as an extension to its continued support for Israeli crimes in Gaza, with seventy-three airstrikes targeting the capital Sanaa, and the provinces of Hodeidah, Taiz, Hajjah, and Saada," Saree announced.

"These airstrikes resulted in the martyrdom of five individuals and the injury of six others from the ranks of our armed forces," he added.

"The American and British enemies bear full responsibility for their criminal aggression against the Yemeni people, and it will not slide without retaliation and punishment. The Yemeni Armed Forces will not hesitate to target sources of threat and all hostile targets on land and sea, defending Yemen, its sovereignty, and independence."

This heinous aggression, Saree said, will not deter Yemen from proactively supporting the Palestinian people's struggle for liberation.

The spokesperson reaffirmed the Yemeni Armed Forces' commitment to preventing Israeli-linked ships from navigating the Arabian and Red seas en route to the ports of occupied Palestine.
