The Yemeni Armed Forces carried out strikes using locally manufactured ballistic missiles, targeting Saudi military concentrations and a meeting of military commanders in the Ras al-Ara area of Lahj Governorate.

Military media released footage documenting the operation, showing the precision of the surveillance and reconnaissance conducted before the attack, as well as the moment armored vehicles and military equipment were reduced to wreckage, amid scenes of personnel fleeing the site en masse.

In another notable battlefield development, Yemeni Armed Forces spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced that air defenses had succeeded in shooting down a Wing Loong II armed reconnaissance drone belonging to the Saudi enemy while it was carrying out hostile missions over Taiz Governorate, confirming that it was targeted with an appropriate weapon.

In another field development, militias affiliated with Saudi military concentrations were reportedly expelled from the Al-Ma’afer and Al-Mawasit districts of Taiz Governorate.

The Humanitarian Operations Coordination Center also issued a warning to all airlines operating in Saudi airspace, declaring that it

“is no longer safe”

as long as the Saudi aggression against Yemen continues.

It further stated that Saudi airspace

“will become a theater of operations for the Yemeni Armed Forces,”

holding the Republic of Yemen responsible for the consequences following this announcement.
