The Yemeni Armed Forces clashed fiercely with multiple American destroyers and warships in the Gulf of Aden and the Strait of Bab al-Mandeb, according to Brigadier General Yahya Saree, the spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces.
During a press conference held earlier today, Saree confirmed that the confrontation lasted over two hours and yielded remarkable results. He revealed, “We successfully hit an American warship directly, forcing two American merchant ships to retreat and head back.” The Yemeni military deployed a series of ballistic missiles, marking their determination to defend their homeland.
Saree further disclosed that amidst the exchange, the Yemeni ballistic missiles managed to find their targets, defeating the attempts of the US warships to intercept them. This highlights the advanced capabilities of the Yemeni Armed Forces, urging nations to take note of their unwavering resilience.
One significant message conveyed by Saree was that the Yemeni Armed Forces continue to impose a blockade on Israeli navigation in the Red Sea. This bold action includes preventing Israeli ships and ships heading towards “Israel” from accessing the ports of occupied Palestine until the relentless aggression on Gaza ceases, and the blockade is lifted.
This latest confrontation serves as a clear demonstration of Yemen’s determination to protect its sovereignty against any encroachment. As tensions continuously rise in the region, the Yemeni Armed Forces have proven their unwavering dedication to safeguard the nation’s interests in the face of formidable adversaries.
