In a statement released on Saturday, spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced that the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a successful strike on the Israeli Nevatim Airbase, located in the southern region of occupied Palestine.
This operation was carried out as part of the fifth phase of their support in the ongoing Promised Conquest campaign, which comes in response to the Israeli occupation's ongoing attacks on Gaza and in solidarity with the Palestinian people and their fighters.
Saree stated that the strike, which utilized a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile, successfully hit its intended target, the Nevatim Airbase, located in the al-Naqab desert in southern Palestine. The missile strike was carried out with the support of divine assistance, the statement confirmed.
The Yemeni Armed Forces expressed pride and honor in the widespread popular rallies held in Sanaa and across various provinces and districts in Yemen, showing unwavering support for the Palestinian cause. They also reiterated their commitment to continue their military operations against Israeli forces until the aggression on Gaza ceases and the blockade is lifted.
Saree concluded by reaffirming the Yemeni military's dedication to its religious, moral, and humanitarian duties, emphasizing that the struggle against Israeli occupation will persist with further military actions in defense of Gaza and Palestine.
Yemen attacks Ben Gurion airport
The YAF carried out a top-tier military operation targeting Ben Gurion Airport in the occupied Yafa region with a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile, spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced on Friday.
The missile successfully reached its target despite the enemy’s attempts to conceal it and resulted in casualties and the suspension of airport operations, Saree confirmed.
He also said that the YAF's UAV Force conducted a military operation targeting a vital Israeli site in the occupied Yafa region (Tel Aviv) using a drone, which achieved its objective successfully.
Moreover, the UAV Force carried out another operation targeting the ship Santa Ursula in the Arabian Sea east of Socotra Island using several drones, achieving a direct hit, the spokesperson confirmed.
The targeting of the ship came after its owning company violated the ban imposed by the YAF on entering the ports of occupied Palestine, Saree said.
On Thursday, the Israeli occupation launched a large-scale attack on Yemen while the leader of the Ansar Allah movement, Sayyed Abdul Malik al-Houthi, was delivering his speech.
A source told Al Mayadeen that the Israeli aggression on Sanaa and al-Hodeidah targeted civilian facilities and was carried out with the US and UK's coordination and support.
The source also said that targeting civilian facilities is evidence of the occupation's failure to have a clear target list within the country, stressing that this "will not change the course of the war and will be met with a similar response."
Al Mayadeen's correspondent, in turn, also confirmed that the Israeli occupation's aggression targeted a gathering of travelers, including patients, at the Sanaa International Airport terminal, and also targeted airport control towers.
Touching on the aggression, Saree underlined that it will only strengthen the resolve and determination of the Yemeni people to continue supporting the Palestinian people.
