The Yemeni Armed Forces have carried out a series of military operations targeting ships belonging to the United States, United Kingdom, and the Israeli regime. The attacks, which resulted in direct hits, were announced by Brigadier General Yahya Saree, the spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces.
The first operation targeted the Israeli ship MSC Unific VI in the Arabian Sea, followed by an attack on the US oil tanker Delonix in the Red Sea. The British Cargo ship Anvil Point in the Indian Ocean and the Lucky Sailor ship in the Mediterranean Sea were also targeted in subsequent operations.

According to the Yemeni Armed Forces, these operations were in response to the violation of a ban on entering ports in the occupied Palestinian territories. The YAF has vowed to continue its operations until the blockade on the Palestinian people in Gaza is lifted.
This latest round of attacks comes after similar operations were carried out last week, targeting Israeli-affiliated and American vessels in the Mediterranean and Red Sea. The YAF collaborated with the Islamic Resistance in Iraq for these attacks, using a combination of suicide drones and anti-ship ballistic missiles.
The Yemeni people and their armed forces remain steadfast in their support for the Palestinian cause, putting ships and companies supplying the Israeli occupation under the direct threat of attacks. The YAF is also expanding its operations to target traffic into major Israeli-occupied ports, in collaboration with Iraqi Resistance factions.
