The spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, announced that the navy had carried out a military operation during which it launched missiles at the American military cargo ship Ocean Jazz in the Gulf of Aden.

Saree declared that this operation was in support of the Palestinian resistance in Gaza and in response to the Israeli occupation's aggression against civilians.

He also stressed that the response to the American and British attacks is inevitable, and that "any new aggression will not go unpunished."

"The Yemeni Armed Forces confirm their continued efforts to prevent Israeli ships, or ships heading to the ports of occupied Palestine until the aggression stops and the siege on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip is lifted," the Yemeni spokesperson underlined.

This comes in the wake of sustained aggression by the United States and Britain on Yemen, coupled with their ongoing militarization of the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab, emphasizing that these actions pose a "real and serious threat to international navigation."

The Yemeni Armed Forces have escalated their operations, targeting US-owned ships in the Gulf of Aden on Wednesday and Thursday, Sanaa has promised a wider-scale response to the US-led violations in Yemen.

The mother of terrorism

In response to these aggressions, the Yemeni people took to the streets on Friday, organizing a "million-man march" in the capital, Sanaa. 

Those participating in the demonstration, dubbed "Steadfast with Palestine, US mother of terrorism," reiterated their support for the Palestinian people and condemnation of the US-UK aggression on Yemen.

A statement from the marches in Saada Governorate, northern Yemen, declared that the US-UK aggression will not deter the Yemeni people from supporting occupied Palestine.

The statement further affirmed Yemen's steadfast stance alongside occupied Palestine, stressing its continued mobilization across various levels, including the military operations being carried out in the Red and Arabian Seas.

The protest's slogan comes in response to Washington's decision to consider Sanaa's leading party, the Ansar Allah Movement a "Specially Designated Global Terrorist." On the other hand, the Yemeni people responded by branding the US government as "the mother of terrorism."

The White House has explicitly admitted to blackmailing the Yemeni people with the designation, saying that the decision would be quickly reviewed if the YAF halts its operations in the Red Sea.

However, both officials and the masses have re-affirmed their unwavering commitment to supporting the Palestinian people, in the face of an ongoing US-backed Israeli genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.
