West Asia(IP): Yemeni Armed Forces spokesperson stated that a two-hour battle ensued with a US battleship.

Iran Press/ West Asia: The spokesperson of the Yemeni Armed Forces, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, said that there was a confrontation today with several US destroyers and warships in the Gulf of Aden and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, as Al-Mayadeen reported. 

Saree confirmed that the results of the confrontation included "directly hitting a US warship and forcing two American merchant ships to retreat."

The Yemeni armed forces deployed several ballistic missiles in the operation that lasted for more than two hours, Saree revealed.

He added that during the confrontation a number of our ballistic missiles hit their targets, despite the attempts of the warships to intercept them.

He emphasized that the Yemeni Armed Forces continue to enforce a blockade on Israeli navigation in the Red Sea, preventing Israeli ships and Israel-bound ships from reaching the ports of occupied Palestine until the aggression on Gaza stops and the blockade is lifted. 219
