The UAV unit of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out two simultaneous military operations using two drones against Israeli targets, spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced Saturday evening.

Saree said that the first drone targeted a vital Israeli site in the occupied city of Yafa (Tel Aviv), while the second struck a vital target in the occupied city of Askalan.

The Yemeni spokesperson indicated that these two operations were in support of the Palestinian people and their Resistance amid the US-backed genocide committed by "Israel" in Gaza.

Additionally, Saree announced that the YAF's UAV unit and Navy conducted a joint military operation targeting hostile warships, primarily the American aircraft carrier USS Truman, in the northern Red Sea, using multiple drones.

He said that the operation is part of the YAF's response to the ongoing daily American aggression against Yemen.

Earlier on Saturday, the YAF announced they carried out a military operation targeting the Nevatim airbase in the al-Naqab region of southern occupied Palestine.

The operation involved the use of a hypersonic Palestine-2 ballistic missile, which successfully struck its target. According to Brigadier General Saree, the missile reached the Nevatim airbase after the Israeli occupation's defense systems failed to intercept it.

In their official statement, the Yemeni Armed Forces emphasized their commitment to resisting the US aggression and highlighted ongoing efforts to enhance their military capabilities. They stressed that defensive and support operations, including attacks like the Nevatim airbase attack, will continue until the aggression on Gaza ends and the blockade is lifted.

Israeli media reported that a missile had been launched from Yemen toward a target in the occupied al-Naqab desert, claiming that the Israeli military had intercepted it.

However, the Yemeni Armed Forces affirmed the success of their Palestine-2 missile strike, contradicting the Israeli occupation's version of events.

Yemen downs seven US drones worth $200mn in six weeks

A report published yesterday by the Associated Press (AP) noted that the YAF shot down seven US Reaper drones in less than six weeks, causing losses exceeding $200 million for the US amid its intensified aggression against Yemen.

Citing defense officials, the US news agency stated that three of the drones were brought down in the past week alone, reflecting an enhanced capability by YAF to intercept unmanned aircraft flying over their territory.

The downed drones were either conducting attack operations or surveillance missions, according to the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity. While the cause of these incidents is believed to be “hostile fire", investigations are still underway, the report added.

These advanced drones, manufactured by General Atomics, cost approximately $30 million each and typically operate at altitudes exceeding 40,000 feet (12,100 meters).
