In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
Allah the Almighty said:
“O you who believe, if you support Allah, He will support you and make your foothold firm.”
Allah the Almighty has spoken the truth.
In implementation of what was stated in the previous statement of the Yemeni Armed Forces regarding direct military intervention in support of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the fronts of resistance in Lebanon, Iraq, and Palestine, and in light of the ongoing military escalation, the targeting of infrastructure, and the perpetration of crimes and massacres against our brothers in Lebanon, Iran, Iraq, and Palestine, the Yemeni Armed Forces, with the help of Allah and reliance upon Him, have carried out their first military operation.
This operation was executed using a salvo of ballistic missiles targeting sensitive military objectives of the Israeli enemy in southern occupied Palestine.
This operation coincided with the heroic operations carried out by our mujahideen brothers in Iran and Hezbollah in Lebanon, and by the grace of Allah, it successfully achieved its objectives.
Our operations, by the will of Allah, will continue until the declared objectives are achieved, as stated in our previous statement, and until the aggression against all fronts of the resistance comes to an end.
Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs; the best protector and the best supporter.
Long live Yemen—free, dignified, and independent.
Victory to Yemen and to all the free people of the Ummah.
