Yemen says ready for any scenario following drone strike on Tel Aviv

Yemen’s Ansarullah popular resistance movement has said it was ready for any scenario that could follow the Yemeni Armed Forces’ recent pro-Palestinian drone strike against the city of Tel Aviv in the occupied Palestinian territories.

Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, member of Ansarullah’s Political Bureau, made the remarks on Friday in an interview with Qatar’s Al Araby channel.

The movement, he said, was "prepared for any Israeli response" to the strike.

Yemen’s Armed Forces announced the operation earlier in the day. It saw the aircraft exploding in a building lying less than 100 meters away from the US Consulate in the city, killing one person and injuring 10 others.

The Yemeni forces have been staging numerous strikes against targets lying across the occupied Palestinian territories since October 7, when the Israeli regime began a genocidal war against the Gaza Strip.

The Yemeni forces announced that they used a radar-evading drone, dubbed Yafa, to carry out the operation as the Israeli air defenses failed to intercept the drone. 

The forces have also been targeting Israeli ships and vessels sailing towards the ports of the occupied territories.

The operations that have left a considerable impact on the regime’s economy, have been seeking to force it to stop the war that has so far killed nearly 39,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children.

Adding to his remarks, Bukhaiti likewise noted that “the goal that is sought by our military operations against Israel is to stop the genocide in Gaza.”

The Yemeni operations have also been used as a means of pressuring the regime into stopping a simultaneous siege that it has been employing against the coastal sliver.
