The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) conducted a military operation targeting the United States Navy Carrier Strike Group 8, which lasted for hours. 

The operation began on Tuesday, which marked the 10th anniversary of the Yemeni people's steadfast confrontation of the Saudi-led aggression, and carried on into the early hours of Wednesday. 

Brigadier General Yahya Saree said that different branches of the YAF targeted US Navy vessels in the Red Sea, including the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman, amid ongoing American aggression on Yemen. 

The flagship of Carrier Strike Group 8 has served as the main launching pad for aerial assaults on Yemen, which have also targeted civilians, a cancer hospital, and residential areas, among other civilian targets. 

Saree stated that clashes with American forces were ongoing until the statement's release at 4:40 am (local time), emphasizing that the Yemeni forces are responding responsibly to evolving battlefield developments.

Yemeni attack drones launched at Israeli targets

Saree also revealed that the YAF's Unmanned Air Force had launched multiple long-range one-way attack drones at Israeli targets in occupied Palestine earlier. This follows multiple Yemeni missile attacks against the Israeli occupation, which comes in the context of the YAF's ongoing support to the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

The Yemeni military spokesperson also confirmed that Sanaa will continue to confront the US-led aggression on the country and respond to any new escalation. 

Saree reaffirmed the ban on Israeli-affiliated vessels in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab Strait, vowing that Yemeni forces will persist in striking Israeli targets until the war on Gaza ends and the siege is lifted.

To conclude, the general called on all "free people of our nation to take action to halt the genocide" of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
