Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced Sunday that they have successfully executed a precise military operation targeting key military and strategic sites of the Israeli occupation in Yafa [Tel Aviv] and Askala [Ashkelon], located in southern occupied Palestine.

Saree announced that the operation, executed using multiple drones, "successfully achieved its objectives" as part of the fifth phase of escalations.

The operation was executed "in support of the oppressed Palestinian and Lebanese peoples, and a powerful display of solidarity with the Palestinian and Lebanese Resistance."

The spokesperson also confirmed that they will continue their military operations in response to the occupation's crimes in Gaza and Lebanon, and will not stop until the aggression stops, the siege on the Gaza Strip is lifted, and the aggression on Lebanon stops.

As part of the series of operations being carried out against enemy targets, Saree also announced Saturday the success of an operation against a vital target in occupied Umm al-Rashrash [Eilat] in southern occupied Palestine, using drones.

Earlier this week, the YAF carried out two top-tier operations targeting US naval assets in the region.

The first operation targeted the US aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln in the Arabian Sea. Using a combination of cruise missiles and drones, Yemeni forces struck the vessel while it was reportedly preparing for operations against Yemen. The statement said the operation thwarted an impending American aerial assault, achieving its objectives without interruption.

The second operation targeted two US destroyers in the Red Sea with ballistic missiles and drones, again claiming successful strikes against the vessels.
