The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) announced another series of operations in the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden, and the Indian Ocean, targeting Israeli-affiliated ships and American warships in the aforementioned waterways, the spokesperson for the YAF, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, announced.
The YAF targeted the US-flagged MAERSK YORKTOWN container ship in the Gulf of Aden with several anti-ship missiles, which dealt direct hits to their target.
Saree also announced in his statement that the Yemeni Unmanned Air Force executed two operations, the first targeted a US warship in the Gulf of Aden while the other targeted an Israeli ship in the Pacific Ocean.
The Israeli ship was identified as the MSC VERACRUZ, which last updated its position nine days ago near South Africa, on the Cape of Good Hope route. The Yemeni Armed Forces had previously pledged to cut off the pre-Suez Canal route for Israeli-affiliated ships.
Saree underlined that the operations of the Unmanned Air Force achieved their set objectives.
"The Yemeni Armed Forces will continue to take further military measures against all hostile targets in the Red Sea, the Arabian Sea, and the Indian Ocean in defense of dear Yemen and in confirmation of the position of support for the oppressed Palestinian people," Saree emphasized.
