Brigadier General Yahya Saree, the spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces, announced the operation in a statement, emphasizing that it was a response to the ongoing Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people in Gaza.
The Israeli regime launched a massive bombardment of Yemeni cities earlier on Thursday, targeting civilian infrastructure.
Yemen has consistently shown solidarity with the Palestinian resistance against the Israeli occupation, with the Yemeni Armed Forces vowing to continue their attacks until the Israeli offensive in Gaza ceases.
This attack comes after the United States and Britain formed a military coalition to target Yemen in support of the Israeli regime in December. (ILKHA)
