He pointed out that the second operation carried out by the naval forces targeted the British ship “ISLANDER” in the Gulf of Aden with a number of suitable naval missiles, hitting it directly and causing a fire to break out on it.
As for the third operation, an American destroyer in the Red Sea was targeted with a number of drones, according to the spokesman.
Brigadier General Sare’e affirmed that the armed forces continue to carry out their religious, moral, and humanitarian duties towards the Palestinian people and in defense of Yemen in the face of US-British aggression, and that their military operations will not stop unless the Zionist aggression on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip stops and the siege is lifted.
