The spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF), Brigadier General Yahya Saree, announced on Wednesday that Yemeni forces had carried out three new drone operations targeting Israeli positions in response to the ongoing Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

According to Saree, the operations involved five drones and successfully completed their missions against three separate targets inside Israeli-occupied territory.

"The first operation targeted a sensitive site in the occupied city of Yafa (Tel Aviv) with two drones," Saree said in a statement.

"The second operation targeted a military site in the occupied city of Askalan using two additional drones, while the third targeted a military position in the occupied al-Naqab with a single drone."

He added that all operations "successfully achieved their goals, by the grace of God."

Yemeni forces pledge continued escalation

Saree emphasized that the attacks came “in victory for the oppressed Palestinian people and their brave fighters,” and “in response to the genocide being committed by the Zionist enemy in Gaza.”

He further called on the Arab and Islamic nations to fulfill their "religious, moral, and humanitarian duty" toward the people of Gaza, urging mass protests in the coming days to reject the ongoing Israeli onslaught and to demand an end to the siege, starvation, and deprivation imposed on the besieged enclave.

“Our operations will not stop until the aggression on Gaza ends and the blockade is lifted,” Saree concluded.
