Yemeni forces conducted three pro-Palestinian operations, including a joint effort with Iraqi fighters. They targeted ships in the Red Sea and Mediterranean using drones, missiles, and boats. These actions enforce a ban on vessels heading to Israeli-occupied territories and respond to recent Israeli airstrikes in Gaza. The operations demonstrate Yemen's sophisticated military capabilities and international cooperation.
