Official statement from spokesperson of the Yemeni Armed Forces:
The Yemeni navy successfully carried out a special military operation targeting a military cargo ship in Yemeni territorial waters in the Red Sea, specifically off Hodeidah governorate, while carrying out hostile activities.
The hostile ship carries military equipment of machinery, equipment and other equipment used in the aggression against the Yemeni people.
For weeks, this UAE ship has been under surveillance by our forces and has carried out several hostilities and engaged in hostile activities in Yemeni territorial waters. Over the past weeks, our forces have been monitoring the ship while transporting various quantities of weapons used to target the Yemeni people.
The Navy, as part of its defence missions in Yemeni territorial waters, has been and continues to monitor all hostile activities of aggression warships.
We reiterate our warning that we have right options to respond to aggression escalation. We say to [the] UAE enemy specifically. We have the right options, and our forces, with their multiple formations have strength and will, are present to respond to any aggressive escalation.
We carried out our operation in Yemeni territorial waters, neither Saudi nor UAE. The aggression coalition must stop its follies.
Your aggression against Yemen will not continue and your war against our dear, steadfast and fighting people will not continue and sooner or later defeat will be your destiny.
We warn the aggression forces of the consequences of any attempt to target the ship loaded with weapons, as the crew of the ship of different nationalities is still on board.
With God's help, we continue to defend the #Yemen and the people of Yemen until the aggression stops, the siege is lifted and even freedom and independence are achieved. We will not hesitate to take all appropriate options to deter the aggressors.
