Yemeni Armed Forces Fire Ballistic Missile at Ben Gurion Airport, Confront USS Harry Truman

Despite the continuous US aggression against Yemen, Yemeni Armed Forces fired a ballistic missile towards the Zionist entity and confronted the USS Harry Truman US aircraft carrier in the Red Sea.

The Yemeni Armed Forces Issued the following statements: 

First Statement:

“With the help of Allah Almighty, our armed forces continue, for the third consecutive week, their responsible and effective response to the ongoing American aggression against our country where they clashed with hostile warships, foremost among them the American aircraft carrier “Truman”, in the Red Sea three times during the past 24 hours.

The confrontation and engagement operation was carried out by the Missile Force, the Drone Air Force, and the Naval Forces, using a number of cruise missiles and drones.

The Armed Forces salute their heroic fighters across all branches, formations, and weapons systems as they perform their religious, humanitarian, and moral duty in defense of a free, independent Yemen and in support of the oppressed Palestinian people. On their behalf, they extend every greeting to the leader, Sayyed Abdul-Malik Badr El-Din Al-Houthi (may Allah protect him), and to all our steadfast and struggling Yemeni people in various governorates and regions. Greetings are also extended to the heroic fighters in the Gaza Strip, to the free and proud Palestinian people, and to all the free people of our dear nation.

They affirm that, relying on Allah, they are continuing to develop their defensive operations and confront escalation with escalation, and will not retreat from supporting the oppressed Palestinian people until the aggression against Gaza ceases and the siege upon it is lifted.”

Second Statement: 

“In support of the oppressed Palestinian people and in backing their noble and valiant resistance, the missile force has carried out a military operation targeting Ben Gurion Airport in the occupied Yaffa area, using a ballistic missile of the Thulfiqar type. The operation successfully achieved its objective, by the grace of Allah.

Through this operation, the Yemeni Armed Forces affirm the failure of the American aggression in preventing Yemen from continuing its support operations for the oppressed Palestinian people. The dozens of daily airstrikes will not deter the armed forces from fulfilling their religious, moral, and humanitarian duties. With the help of Allah, operations against the “Israeli” enemy will continue until the aggression on Gaza ceases and the siege is lifted.”
