Yemen’s armed forces have launched a new strike targeting another Israeli-linked vessel in support of the Gaza Strip.
According to a statement by the Yemeni armed forces, the vessel was targeted twice in the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandab Strait on Friday.
Brigadier General Yahya Saree said the country’s forces used ballistic missiles and drones in the attack against the ship “Charysalis.”
He cited a violation of a ban imposed by Sana’a on ships heading to the Israeli ports.
“It was targeted twice, first in the Red Sea and second in Bab al-Mandab, using several appropriate ballistic and naval missiles and drones,” Saree said.
“The operations of the Yemeni Armed Forces will not stop until the aggression is halted and the siege on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip is lifted,” he added.
He also said Yemeni military forces are fully prepared for action against any party that would support Israel, and would supply the United States and the Tel Aviv regime with munitions for strikes against the Arab nation.
Yemen has vowed to continue such operations until Israel ends its genocide in Gaza.
