The Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a top-tier military operation in the Red Sea as part of their support for Gaza and its Resistance and in response to the Israeli-US-UK aggression against Yemen.
A joint operation by the missile and drone forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces targeted the American aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman and a number of its accompanying warships in the northern Red Sa using a number of drones and missiles.
The engagement lasted approximately nine hours and achieved its objectives successfully, forcing the aircraft carrier to flee to the Red Sea's far north, leaving the designated area of operations, a statement issued by the Yemeni Military Media announced.
This marks the fifth targeting of the aircraft carrier since its deployment in the Red Sea.
In their statement, the Yemeni Armed Forces reaffirmed their commitment to supporting the Palestinian Resistance. They declared that their operations would persist until the aggression on Gaza ceases and the blockade is lifted.
