Summary of "جماعة الحوثي تستهدف حاملة طائرات أميركية بـ18 صاروخا ردا على قصف اليمن"

In a recorded statement, Yahya Saree, the military spokesman for the Yemeni Houthi group, announced a significant military response to recent U.S. airstrikes on Yemen. He emphasized the principle of proportionality in retaliation, stating that the Houthis targeted the American aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman and its associated units in the northern Red Sea with 18 ballistic and hypersonic missiles, as well as a drone. This operation involved the missile force, air force, drones, and naval units of the Yemeni armed forces.

Saree condemned the U.S. actions, describing them as blatant aggression that resulted in numerous casualties across various Yemeni governorates, including Sana’a and Marib. He vowed that the Yemeni armed forces would continue to target American military assets in the Red Sea and Arabian Sea in retaliation for the attacks. Furthermore, he declared intentions to impose a naval blockade on Israeli ships in the area until humanitarian aid reaches the Gaza Strip.

Saree concluded with a rallying call for resilience among the Yemeni people, asserting that such aggression would only strengthen their resolve and faith. He expressed a commitment to the struggle for an independent Yemen.
