“The Yemeni Armed Forces affirm that retaliation against American and British attacks is inevitable, and any new aggression will not go unpunished,” Brigadier General Yahya Sare’e added.

He continued: “Yemeni Armed Forces persist with their military operations: enforcing a blockade on Israeli navigation in the Red and Arabian seas until a ceasefire in Gaza is achieved, and the siege is lifted.

Sare’e affirmed that the Yemeni armed forces continue to take all defensive and offensive procedures within the right to defend dear Yemen and in confirmation of the continued Yemeni position in support of Palestine.

The military Spokesman concluded his statement by saying: “The Yemeni armed forces continue to retaliate to any American or British aggression against our country by targeting all sources of threat in the Red and Arab Seas.”
