Yemeni Military Operations Target Yafa, Umm al-Rashrash, and Beersheba

Spokesman Yahya Saree Confirms Launch of 'Palestine-2' Missile and Drone Operations in Support of Gaza

Yemen, PUREWILAYAH.COM - The spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, announced the implementation of a qualitative military operation deep inside occupied Palestine, carried out in support of the oppressed Palestinian people and in response to the crimes of genocide committed by the Israeli enemy against the people of Gaza.

According to Saree’s statement issued Wednesday, the missile force launched a “Palestine-2” hypersonic ballistic missile targeting a sensitive military objective in occupied Yafa.

The operation reportedly struck its target with precision, forcing millions of settlers to flee into shelters and leading to the closure of airspace in occupied Palestine.

Drone Operations

The statement added that the Air Force carried out two operations, the first targeting several objectives in Umm al-Rashrash with three drones, and the second targeting a sensitive objective in Beersheba with one drone. Both operations were confirmed successful.

The Yemeni Armed Forces stressed that Umm al-Rashrash will remain under continuous and direct targeting, noting that developments have proven the Israeli enemy poses a threat not only to occupied Palestine but to the entire region.

Commitment to the Palestinian Cause

The statement reaffirmed that Yemen will continue, relying on God, its support operations for the Palestinian people until the aggression on Gaza stops and the blockade is lifted. It emphasized that Yemen will continue to develop its military capabilities as part of the nation’s battle against the enemy, and that “free, independent Yemen will remain loyal to the causes of the Ummah and will continue confronting the Zionist enemy until victory is achieved.”

Statement of the Yemeni Armed Forces

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate

Allah the Almighty said:
{And surely Allah will support those who support Him. Indeed, Allah is Powerful and Mighty} – Truthful is Allah the Great.

Victory for the oppressed Palestinian people and their dear fighters, in response to the crimes of genocide and the grave escalation carried out by the Israeli enemy against our brothers in the Gaza Strip, and in the context of responding to the Israeli aggression against our country:

The missile force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a qualitative military operation with a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile, targeting a sensitive military objective of the Israeli enemy in occupied Yafa. By the grace of Allah, the operation achieved its goal successfully, causing millions of Zionist settlers to flee into shelters and leading to the closure of airspace in occupied Palestine.

The Air Force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out two qualitative military operations: the first targeted different objectives in the Umm al-Rashrash area with three drones; the second targeted a sensitive objective in the Beersheba area in occupied Palestine with one drone. By the grace of Allah, both operations achieved their goals successfully.

The Umm al-Rashrash area will remain under the scope of Yemeni Armed Forces operations, continuously and directly, by Allah’s permission.

The facts and developments have proven that this criminal enemy poses a danger to the entire region — its states and peoples — and not only within the geography of occupied Palestine. This requires everyone to bear responsibility.

Free and independent Yemen, with Allah’s help, will continue to advance in developing its military capabilities to strengthen its position in this battle. Yemen will also continue, relying on Allah, its support operations for the oppressed Palestinian people until the aggression on Gaza is stopped and the blockade is lifted.

Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the Best Protector, the Best Guardian, and the Best Supporter.

Long live Yemen: free, proud, and independent.
Victory for Yemen and for all the free people of the Ummah.
