The number of victims of the massacre perpetrated by the Saudi coalition warplanes in the Al-Libi residential neighborhood in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, has risen to 23.

In a statement on Monday evening, the Spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces, Brigadier-General Yahya Saree, explained the context in which the armed forces' operation hit the depth of the UAE.

Saree also warned the UAE that it would not be safe if it continued its escalation against Yemen.

In this context, the Yemeni Joint Meeting Parties vowed that "this operation will not be the last if the aggression continues." The parties continued to explain that the price that the UAE is paying "confirms that any country that targets Yemen, violates its sovereignty and independence, and occupies its islands will not be safe from targeting."
