The Yemeni rocketry force fired on Saturday three ballistic missiles at key targets in Saudi Arabia in response to the recent escalation of the aggression on Yemen.
The spokesman of the Yemeni Armed Forces, General Yahya Sarea, announced that three sophisticated missiles hit critical targets in Jizan city, adding that the rocketry strike comes in response to the Saudi crimes against the Yemenis.
The Saudi-led aggression forces have escalated their crimes against the Yemeni people, killing Saturday night nine civilians in Al Mahwit Governorate.
Later on, General Sarea announced that the Yemeni defenses managed to down a US-made drone (Scan Eagle) while it was carrying out hostilities over Al-Jawf province.
Head of the national negotiating delegation in Yemen, Mohammad Abdul Salam, stressed the aggression forces will not reap, but harsh consequences from their crimes against the Yemeni people.
Yemen has been since March 2015 under a brutal aggression by Saudi-led coalition. Tens of thousands of Yemenis have been injured and martyred in Saudi-led strikes, with the vast majority of them are civilians.
The coalition has been also imposing a blockade on the impoverished country’s ports and airports as a part of his aggression which is aimed at restoring power to fugitive former president Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi.
Meanwhile, Yemen is home to the world’s largest humanitarian crisis, with at least 7 million people on the brink of famine and hundreds of thousands suffering from cholera.
