Statement Issued by the Yemeni Armed Forces
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Allah, the Exalted, has said: {That [is the law]; and whoever responds with retaliation in kind to an aggressor, and then is wronged, Allah will surely aid him.} Truthful is Allah, the Almighty.
The criminal Saudi enemy continues its criminal aggression against our people through its oppressive siege and the launching of aggressive aerial raids, which have reached 1018 aerial raids and missiles since the escalation began up until this evening, carried out by F15 and Typhoon aircraft that took off from the Khamis Mushait and Taif airbases, as well as rocket aggression from Najran and Jizan, targeting the provinces of Marib, Saada, Hodeidah, Taiz, Al-Jawf, and Al-Bayda, resulting in martyrs and wounded among them women and children, and causing damage to civilian infrastructure.
In response to this aggression, and with the aid of Allah Almighty, the Yemeni Armed Forces have carried out two distinct military operations: the first targeting a sensitive site in the Saudi enemy's capital, Riyadh, and the second targeting Aramco Company in Yanbu, using a number of ballistic and cruise missiles and drones, and both operations achieved their objectives successfully, by the grace of Allah.
The continued launching by the criminal Saudi enemy of its raids on our people and our country will not deter the Yemeni Armed Forces from exercising its legitimate right to a direct and appropriate response to this aggression, for every violation will be met with a response, and every escalation will be met in kind, and the fate of the criminal, oppressive aggressors is nothing but defeat, by the will of Allah Almighty.
We persist in imposing the equation of siege with siege, escalation with escalation, and targeting the mobilizations affiliated with the Saudi enemy until the aggression stops and the siege on our dear country is lifted.
Allah is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs, the Best Protector and the Best Helper.
Long live Yemen, free, dignified, and independent,
And victory belongs to Yemen and to all the free people of the nation.
