The Yemeni Armed Forces have on Wednesday carried out a military operation against a US ship in the Gulf of Aden.
“In support of the oppressed Palestinian people and as part of the response to the American-British aggression against our country, The naval forces of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a targeting operation against the American ship (TRUE CONFIDENCE) in the Gulf of Aden, with a number of appropriate naval missiles. The strike was accurate, led to a fire breaking out on it,” Brigadier General Yahya Sare’e said in a statement this evening.
He affirmed that the targeting operation came after the ship’s crew rejected warning messages from the Yemeni naval forces.
Sare’e added, “ The Yemeni armed forces renew their alert to all ships in response to calls from the Yemeni naval forces, and all crews of the targeted ships must quickly leave after the first attack.”
The Yemeni Armed Forces persist in upholding their religious, moral and humanitarian duties in supporting the oppressed Palestinian people, and their operations in the Red and Arab Seas will not stop until the aggression stops and the siege on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip is lifted, the brigadier general stressed.
