The Yemeni Armed Forces announced on Wednesday two military operations against vital Israeli targets in the occupied Palestinian territories.

The YAF's Missile Force carried out a top-tier military operation targeting a vital Israeli site in the occupied Haifa area using a hypersonic ballistic missile, spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree said.

He confirmed that the missile successfully reached its target and that the Israeli interception systems failed to stop it, adding that the strike caused widespread fear and panic among settlers, with more than two million Israelis reportedly rushing to shelters.

Meanwhile, the YAF's UAV Unit carried out another military operation, attacking another vital Israeli site in the occupied Palestinian city of Yafa (Tel Aviv) with a drone of the Yafa type, the spokesperson added.

Saree said the operations were in solidarity with the Palestinian people and their Resistance and in rejection of the genocide in Gaza being committed by "Israel" with US support.

The YAF spokesperson reiterated that the Yemeni people will neither retreat nor abandon their religious, moral, and humanitarian duties and will continue their path of Resistance in support of the oppressed Palestinian people until the Israeli war on Gaza ends and the siege imposed on the enclave is lifted.

On Tuesday evening, US aircraft carried out four airstrikes on the al-Salem district in Saada, northern Yemen, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported, adding that US-led strikes targeted Kamaran Island in the Red Sea in western Yemen, in addition to two airstrikes on the al-Salif district.

The bombing came after the YAF announced downing an American MQ-9 drone off the coast of Hajjah province that was conducting "hostile missions" in Yemeni airspace.

Saree said the US drone was shot down with a domestically produced surface-to-air missile, noting that this marks the seventh MQ-9 drone downed in April alone, and the 22nd since the beginning of the YAF's military operations in support of Gaza.

In the same briefing, Saree mentioned that the YAF forces carried out two military operations targeting the US aircraft carriers USS Harry S. Truman and USS Carl Vinson, along with their accompanying warships in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea.
