Iran Press/ Middle East: “We have implemented - with the help of Allah - the largest offensive operation ‘the 4th Balanced Deterrence Operation’ on the capital of the Saudi enemy,” the Spokesman for Yemen's Armed Forces, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, said in a statement.
The statement clarified that the 4th Balanced Deterrence Operation has struck Saudi Ministries of Defence and Intelligence, as well as the Salman Air Force Base and other military targets in Riyadh, Jizan and Najran, the Almasirah television network reported.
Brigadier General Saree indicated that the 4th Balanced Deterrence Operation was carried out with a barrage of Quds and Zulfiqar ballistic, winged missiles and drones.
The Yemeni Armed Forces spokesman affirmed that the 4th Balanced Deterrence Operation came in response to “the ongoing unjust blockade and the brutal Saudi aggression against our great Yemeni people.”
Brigadier-General Saree warned the enemy coalition against going too far in their aggression, criminality, and siege, stressing the legitimate and inalienable right that the religious, ethical, humanitarian and national duty imposes on the defense of Yemen and its steadfast people.
The Yemeni Armed Forces spokesman confirmed that Yemen will continue its robust military response until the air, land and sea blockade of Yemen is lifted, the aggression is stopped, and freedom and independence are achieved.
Saudi Arabia and a number of its regional allies launched a devastating war on Yemen in March 2015 ostensibly to bring the country’s former fugitive president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi back to power and crush the popular Ansarullah movement.
Since then, over 100,000 people have been killed, according to the US-based Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED).
Over 24 million Yemenis need aid, and 10 million are facing famine.
The United Nations has described Yemen as the world's biggest humanitarian crisis.
