The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (P.F.L.P) praised the success of the Yemeni Armed Forces in striking a US aircraft carrier and downing an advanced F-18 fighter jet.
In an official statement, the Popular Front commended what it described as a “bold and exceptional operation” carried out by the Yemeni military, which resulted in the downing of a US F-18 jet during an engagement with the USS Harry S. Truman in the Red Sea.
“This heroic operation, marked by exceptional courage and capability, demonstrates that the will of the Yemeni people can bring about strategic shifts, despite vast disparities in military power,” the statement read.
The group emphasized that the ability to strike a US aircraft carrier and shoot down one of its modern warplanes is a testament to the determination and boldness of Yemeni forces, who have shown they can confront the world’s most powerful forces without hesitation.
The statement added that this renewed battle proves Yemen—despite escalating aggression and blockade—continues to write epic chapters of pride and defiance, shaking US calculations and undermining its image of dominance. It also stressed that Yemen’s struggle is inherently linked with the fight in Gaza and Palestine, reflecting a shared blood, destiny, and resistance that transcends borders.
The Popular Front saluted the “honorable and heroic act,” asserting that the Yemeni people are undefeatable and unbreakable, and like the people of Palestine, are steadfast on the path to liberation and victory.
