The naval, UAV, and rocket forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a joint military operation targeting the ship Chrysalis in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab, announced YAF spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree on Friday evening.

Saree mentioned that the ship was targeted due to the fact that its owning company violated the YAF-imposed decision banning entry to the ports of occupied Palestine.

According to the spokesperson, Chrysalis was targeted twice, first in the Red Sea and then in Bab al-Mandab, using several suitable ballistic and naval missiles, as well as drones.

He reiterated that the YAF will not cease its operations until the Israeli aggression stops and the siege on the Palestinian people in Gaza is lifted.

The brigadier general hailed the Yemeni people for their unprecedented massive pro-Palestine rallies across all Yemeni governorates and districts, and for reaffirming their continued military support for the Palestinian Resistance.

In another context, Saree affirmed the YAF's full preparedness to respond to "hostile actions" by the Saudi regime "acting on American directives in service of the Israeli enemy."

Yemen rallies back Resistance, call for escalation against 'Israel'

It is noteworthy that on Thursday, Sayyid Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, the leader of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement, emphasized that regardless of the Saudi escalation and its consequences, "it will never affect our firm stance in supporting the Palestinian people."

Saudi escalation will falter in the face of our steadfastness: Al-Houthi

Sayyed al-Houthi assured the Resistance in Gaza, the people of Palestine, and all the free people of the nation and the world that "Saudi Arabia will never succeed no matter what it does."

He also emphasized that the declarations, statements, and stances of Saudi Arabia and some Gulf countries echo the Israeli, American, and British logic, pointing out that "the Saudis converge with the Americans in terms of halting the support operations," describing this state of affairs as "sheer stupidity".

He pointed out that the US sought, after realizing the futility of its operations, to implicate the Saudis to carry out unprecedented aggression and escalation against Yemen through the economic sector.

Sayyed al-Houthi clarified that Saudi Arabia's decision to block flights from Sanaa airport is completely unacceptable. He also criticized the British and American incitation against the port and slammed the Saudi actions targeting banks, private financial institutions, and companies as unjust and aggressive measures that should not be tolerated.

The Yemeni leader addressed Saudi Arabia, emphasizing that "your aggressive actions are in line with American directives aimed at benefiting Israel, and all attempts to compel us to withdraw our support for Gaza are futile." He continued, "Our warning to Saudi Arabia at the start of the new Hijri year is serious in every sense of the word."

In conclusion, Sayyed al-Houthi addressed the Yemeni people, saying that "the Saudis want you to watch the suffering of the Palestinian people and dance like them and ignore the cries and pain of the Palestinian people," adding that "the enemies want you to retreat from your stance in support of Gaza, to fail the Palestinian people, and to stop supporting operations."
