The Yemeni Armed Forces announced a qualitative military operation targeting weapons depots and command-and-control centers at a Saudi military base in the Sharurah region, in retaliation for continued Saudi airstrikes on the Arab impoverished country.

In a statement read by spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree, the Yemeni Armed Forces said the operation targeted “weapons depots and command and control centers that direct the aggression against our country and our people” at the military base.

Saree said the operation involved a large barrage of ballistic missiles and drones, describing the strikes as “precise and direct.”

He warned that continued Saudi aggression would trigger “more intense and larger operations” deep inside Saudi territory, adding that “the consequences will be dire for it, God willing.”

“Whoever Wants to Ignite Fire Must Bear Consequences”

Meanwhile, Mohammed Ali Al-Houthi, a member of the Supreme Political Council of Yemen’s Ansarullah revolutionary movement, said ships would continue to pass through the region, “except for those ships that the armed forces have declared will not be allowed to pass until the blockade and siege are lifted.”

Al-Houthi warned that “any act of folly committed against our country will be met with a response, even if the repercussions are felt globally.”

“We remind everyone that the region is on a knife’s edge, and whoever wants to ignite the fire must bear the consequences,” he said.
