SANA’A (Dispatches) – The
occupying regime of Israel, the U.S. and Britain on Friday carried out their first coordinated attack on Yemen, the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation reported.
Yemen’s Al-Masirah TV also reported that a series of airstrikes targeted the vicinity of the Al-Sabeen Square in the Yemeni capital.
The aggression coincided with a rally in support of Palestine amid Israel’s 16-month-old continuing genocidal war on Gaza.
Additionally, Yemeni sources reported six airstrikes on the port city of Hudaydah in western Yemen.
Yemen’s armed forces said they targeted American aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman in the northern part of the Red Sea over the previous 48 hours, using cruise missiles and explosive-laden drones.
“The operation .. succeeded in thwarting a new aerial attack launched against our nation from the carrier,” said the statement. “The attack forced the carrier and

its accompanying warships to withdraw from the northern Red Sea region.”
Yemen’s also carried out strikes on Yaffa near Tel Aviv, using three unmanned aerial vehicles on Thursday, it added.
On Monday, Yemen’s Ansarullah targeted the USS Harry Truman in the northern Red Sea and claimed missile and drone attacks on targets in southern and central Israeli occupied territories.
Yemeni forces have targeted Israeli cargo ships or ones linked with Tel Aviv in the Red Sea with missiles and drones in a show of support with the Gaza Strip, where over 46,000 people have been martyred in Israel’s genocidal war since October 2023.
Since early 2024, a coalition led by the U.S. has been carrying out airstrikes on Yemen, drawing retaliation from Ansarullah and its allies.
The leader of the Ansarullah movement on Thursday said Israel is incapable of intercepting and shooting down hypersonic Yemeni missiles.
In a televised speech, Adul-Malik al-Houthi said the failure points to the huge and significant gap in the Tel Aviv regime’s defense capabilities.
He said Yemeni forces have managed to target Israeli military positions deep inside the occupied lands multiple times, using hypersonic missiles and drones.
Yemen’s operations, which are being carried out in retaliation for the Israeli genocidal campaign against Palestinians in Gaza, are imposing a substantial economic cost on the usurping regime, he added.
“The operations have an enormous impact. They are instilling fear, anxiety and panic into the Zionist enemy, which has failed to intercept Yemeni missiles. The Israeli aviation industry has been dramatically influenced, as flights into and out of Ben Gurion Airport are halted during our operations.”
Houthi hit out at the outgoing administration of U.S. President Joe Biden for an $8 billion aid package for Israel that includes munitions for fighter jets and attack helicopters alongside artillery shells, stating that “the Zionist enemy will use the ammunition to kill women and children”.
