Yemeni Army Targets American Ship “Pinocchio” in Red Sea

The Yemeni Armed Forces announced the targeting of an American ship named “Pinocchio” in the Red Sea. Brigadier General Yahya Saree declared that the naval missiles hit their target with precision, sending a clear message of defiance.

The Yemeni forces continue to prohibit Israeli navigation and any vessels heading towards occupied Palestine until the aggression ceases and the blockade on Gaza is lifted. With the holy month of Ramadan underway, the operations are set to escalate in full support of the Palestinian people and the fighters in Gaza.

The US Central Command confirmed the missile launch from Yemen towards the “Pinocchio” and increased tensions in the region. Additionally, the British Maritime Trade Operations Authority reported a distress call 71 nautical miles southwest of Yemen, indicating a serious incident at sea.

As a response to ongoing Israeli aggression and in solidarity with Palestine, the Yemeni armed forces target Israeli, American, and British ships in the region. Popular protests in Yemen show unwavering support for the Palestinians, condemning the continuous attacks on Gaza.

Earlier, US-British aggression aircraft launched conducted 13 airstrikes on the coastal province of Hodeidah along the Red Sea. The airstrikes focused on different areas, including al-Irj and Ras Issa in Bajil and al-Salif Districts respectively. Furthermore, al-Jabbana in the northwest and al-Taif in the al-Durayhimi District were also hit.

Reports from Monday indicated that the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations received a distress call regarding an incident 71 nautical miles southwest of Salif, Yemen.
