The caretaker Prime Minister in Sanaa, Abdul Aziz bin Habtoor, has threatened that Sanaa's forces will target Israeli vessels in the Red Sea if "Israel" continues its aggression against Gaza.

Bin Habtour stressed on Sunday that Sanaa has contributed to efforts aimed at responding to massacres committed by "Israel" against Gazans, adding that Sanaa will continue to do so.

Ehud Yaari, a commentator for Israeli Channel 12, said it is necessary to deal seriously with the Yemeni threats of targeting Israeli vessels that sail through Bab al-Mandab in the event of a ground operation in Gaza.

USS Carney intercepts Yemeni projectiles

Earlier on Thursday, the USS Carney, an Arleigh-Burke-class destroyer, intercepted a heavy barrage of missiles and drones over the span of nine hours, an unnamed US official told CNN.

The official told CNN that the USS Carney intercepted four cruise missiles and 15 drones in the Red Sea as they headed north.

The Pentagon suggested that the missiles' trajectory indicates that they were most likely headed to occupied Palestine to strike Israeli positions.

The attack came in light of paramount solidarity with the Palestinian people from Yemen, with the support seeing Sanaa seeking to retaliate against the Israeli occupation for its crimes from across the Red Sea.

The missiles were launched "potentially towards targets in Israel," Pentagon press secretary Pat Ryder said, revealing that there were three land-attack cruise missiles and several drones.

Ryder also highlighted that some of the projectiles were traveling at very high altitudes when they were intercepted with SM-2 surface-to-air missiles launched from the USS Carney.

Yemen launching projectiles that the US alleges were heading toward "Israel" compromises a highly rare occurrence, wherein the United States has not engaged Yemeni aerial targets in years, but it also reflects the recently highly vocal Arab solidarity with Palestine.

US occupation bases come under fire

The US-backed Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, risks a breakout of a regional war, as Resistance factions in Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen take action in response to the massacres committed in Gaza.

Most recently, the Ain al-Assad US occupation base in Iraq was targeted with rockets on Saturday evening, Reuters said in a report.

Iraqi Resistance factions declared that all US bases within reach had become legitimate targets, especially those in Iraq. "We will not stand idly by in the face of the ongoing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza," the factions pledged earlier this week.

A spokesperson of Iraqi Kataib Hezbollah declared on Wednesday that the Iraqi Resistance has officially joined the battle in support of Palestine and its Resistance, announcing that the group carried out its first strikes on US bases.

Over half a dozen operations took place against American military bases in the past four days. The Islamic Resistance in Iraq claimed responsibility for targeting the bases of Ain al-Assad and Harir in Iraqi Kurdistan, as well as al-Tanf and Conoco bases in Syria.

Meanwhile, Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces chief Faleh al-Fayyad said in an interview for Al Mayadeen on Saturday that Iraq will carry out "all duties toward the Palestinians, at the level of aid or military-wise."
