The Yemeni Armed Forces announced on Friday the execution of two military operations targeting Israeli occupation sites in the occupied city of Yafa, also known as Tel Aviv.
In a statement, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces, detailed the operations, "The first operation targeted an Israeli occupation power station east of Yafa with a Palestine 2 hypersonic ballistic missile, which struck its target with precision."
The second operation, Saree added, involved a Yafa drone targeting a military site belonging to the Israeli occupation in the same area.
Reaffirming Yemen's readiness, Saree stated, "We stand fully prepared to confront any reckless aggression by American and Israeli forces or their allies." He emphasized Yemen's capability to "defend the nation, its sovereignty, and its legitimate rights with God's help."
Saree also called on "the free people of our nation to take decisive action to halt Israeli massacres against our brothers in Gaza."
The announcement coincided with massive rallies held across Yemen, including a million-man march in the capital of Sanaa at al-Sabeen Square, as well as in over 600 other central and local sites in various cities and districts. These rallies were organized in solidarity with Gaza and in support of the Yemeni Armed Forces.
In a statement issued during the rallies, participants declared that the "American-British aggression against our country has failed after a year of perseverance, with God granting us victory and defeating our enemies."
The rallies also reaffirmed their commitment to the promised victory and sacred struggle, vowing, "We will not abandon the banner, vacate the arenas, or retreat from our steadfast positions of faith."
'Eye for an eye'
Yemen will never stop supporting Gaza, a senior Yemeni military source reaffirmed to Al Mayadeen on Tuesday, while detailing Yemen's advanced military capabilities in the face of any aggression and hostility.
According to the source, the technological and multifaceted advancement does not solely entail strategic weaponry, but also Yemen's intelligence and plans to thwart the enemy's plots, noting that the armed forces' latest naval operations and attacks targeting deep occupied territories were achieved using several military tactics.
Regarding missile operations, the Yemeni source stressed that several missiles are capable of reaching occupied Yafa (Tel Aviv) without being intercepted, including the hypersonic ballistic missile, the Zulfiqar ballistic missile, as well as other weapons from the country's arsenal.
He also emphasized that the Yemeni army is preparing "surprises", demanding the end of the aggression on Gaza given that Yemen's support for the territory will not cease.
"Yemen possesses a myriad of military choices, and the American and British enemies failed in deciphering Yemen's technical codes," the source noted, adding that the armed forces own advanced and precise weapons designed to defeat and penetrate all air defenses.
Given the aggression on both Gaza and Yemen, the Yemeni army has decided to establish a new military equation: Power grid for power grid and airport for airport. However, the solution to that would be the end of the aggression on the Gaza Strip.
