Earlier today the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a military operation using unmanned aerial vehicles on sensitive targets in the Umm al-Rashrash region ("Eilat") in southern occupied Palestine, with a large swarm of drones.

The Yemeni armed forces specified in a statement that the operation is in solidarity with the Palestinian people who are subjected to death, destruction, and a blockade in Gaza. The statement adds this operation is in line with the directives of the leader of the Yemeni Revolution Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi and in response to the wishes of the free daughters and sons of the Yemeni nation. 

The Yemeni Armed Forces affirmed that its operations against the Israeli occupation will persist until the aggression on the Gaza Strip ceases.

Earlier this week, a member of the Political Bureau of the Ansar Allah movement, Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, confirmed to Al Mayadeen that the goal of threatening Israeli ships and ships heading toward the occupation entity in the Red Sea is not to harm the interests of world countries, but for ethical purposes in response to the ongoing brutal war on Gaza.

Sanaa had declared last month that it will commence operations against Israeli and Israeli-affiliated ships in the Red Sea in support of the people in Gaza until the war on the Strip stops.

The enforced decision compelled many major shipping companies to adopt significantly lengthier sailing routes, leading to increased costs, insurance premiums, and the delivery time of cargo heading to the occupation entity.

Yemen corners the US into a dilemma

Bloomberg had reported that officials of US President Joe Biden's administration are in a dilemma in responding to the wave of attacks in the Red Sea. The agency noted that Washington "does not want to be dragged" into a wider war in West Asia (Middle East).

On his part, the former commander of the Israeli Navy, Eliezer Marom, said the Yemeni Armed Forces are imposing a complete naval blockade on the entity, which has led to the disruption of 95% of imports and exports.

Responding to the threat imposed by the Yemeni operations, the Israeli "National Security Council" issued "urgent instructions to Israeli ports to remove information related to the arrival and departure of ships from their websites," according to the Israeli Globes website.
