Yemen has offically declared war on Israel, following a series of coordinated missile and drone attacks on Tuesday, October 31.
The official spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces, Brigadier General Yahya Saree Anu, made the announcement, emphasizing the operation as the "third operation in support of the oppressed brethren in Palestine."
The attacks, which included a substantial number of ballistic and winged missiles, along with drone deployments, targeted enemy installations within the occupied territories. General Saree vowed to persist with even more precise missile and drone strikes until Israel's aggression ceases on Palestinians, specifically highlighting the need for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to halt operations in the Gaza sector.
Earlier on the same day, the IDF reported intercepting a "land-to-land" class missile aimed at the southern Israeli city of Eilat, which was launched from the Red Sea area. In response, the Israeli military destroyed an unidentified "aerial target" over the Red Sea.
General Yahya Saree reiterated Yemen's unwavering support for the Palestinian cause, asserting the full rights of the Palestinian people to defend themselves. He also pointed out that the bombardment on Gaza was facilitated by the support of the United States and the West.
This marks the third operation conducted by Yemen in solidarity with the Palestinian people over the past three weeks. The Yemeni Armed Forces remain resolute in their commitment to this cause, emphasizing the urgency of addressing the ongoing war.
