Sanaa: The naval force of the Yemeni Armed Forces conducted a military operation targeting the Israeli oil tanker "SCARLET RAY" in the northern Red Sea using a ballistic missile. The operation resulted in a direct hit on the ship.
According to Yemen News Agency, the attack was carried out to support the Palestinian people and their fighters, as a response to what is described as genocide and starvation by the Zionist forces against the Gaza Strip. The Yemeni Armed Forces declared that this operation is a part of their ongoing efforts to block Israeli maritime traffic in the Red and Arabian Seas.
The Yemeni Armed Forces stated their commitment to prevent Israeli shipping and access to ports in the occupied Palestinian territories within the Red and Arabian Seas. They have vowed to continue military operations targeting Israeli sites in the occupied regions until what they perceive as aggression ceases and the blockade on the Gaza Strip is lifted.
