Yemenis filled streets across the country in massive demonstrations to reaffirm their support for Palestinians and the operations of the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) on Friday. 

Million-man marches were organized in Sanaa and other provinces, where Yemenis expressed their readiness to confront any possible aggression on their country by the United States or "Israel".

These mass protests come a day after Israeli warplanes raided energy facilities and other civilian infrastructure in the port city of Hodeidah and the capital Sanaa. 

Yemenis also marked the anniversary of the founding of the Islamic Resistance Movement - Hamas and its military wing the al-Qassam Brigades. They also hailed the continued operations of Palestinian Resistance fighters in the Gaza Strip targeting invading Israeli occupation forces. 

A statement issued by organizers called on Muslim and Arab countries to join in supporting the Palestinian people and to allocate resources for that end.

Saree announces joint operation with Iraqi Resistance

At the main demonstration in Sanaa, the spokesperson of the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF), Brigadier General Yahya Saree, addressed demonstrators, where he revealed the details of two operations conducted by the forces. 

The YAF, in coordination with the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, carried out a top-tier military operation targeting vital Israeli sites in southern occupied Palestine using several drones, Saree said.

Separately, the YAF's Unmanned Air Force executed a top-tier military operation targeting an Israeli military site in occupied Yafa (Tel Aviv) also with a drone, he added.

The spokesperson confirmed that the two attacks successfully achieved their targets, reiterating that the operations were "in solidarity with the oppressed Palestinian people and its Resistance fighters and in response to the massacres committed against our brothers in Gaza."

The YAF stressed that any escalation by "Israel" and the United States against Yemen "will be met with a proportional response," Saree said, warning that the YAF "will not hesitate to target the vital facilities of the Israeli enemy, as well as the American military movements that threaten Yemen."

He asserted that the ongoing crimes against Gaza would only lead to further strikes by the YAF and the Islamic Resistance in Iraq against "Israel".

Elsewhere, Saree reiterated that these operations will not cease until the Israeli aggression on Gaza stops and the siege imposed on the Strip is lifted.
