Sana’a: Israeli warplanes have conducted fresh aerial assaults on the Yemeni capital of Sana’a and the strategic western province of Hudaydah, killing and injuring several people.
Yemen’s al-Masirah television channel reported on Thursday that the airstrikes targeted the Haziz and Dhahban power stations near the capital, as well as the Hudaydah port and Ras Isa oil facility.
It said that nine civilians were killed and three others were injured in the attacks.
Civil defense teams managed to extinguish fires at the Dhahban power station, while efforts continue at Haziz, the report added.
Meanwhile, the Israeli military confirmed in a statement that its fighter jets had bombed Yemen following repeated missile and drone attacks on the occupied territories.
It also claimed that the targets struck were used by Yemeni forces “for their military operations.”
Hamas Movement has condemned the Israeli aggression on Yemen saying, “the Zionist terrorist attack on Yemen is a dangerous escalation and extension of its aggression on Palestine and the Arab region.”
In a press statement on Thursday, the Movement condemned in the strongest terms “the brutal Zionist aggression on Yemen,” which targeted civil and public service facilities in the capital Sana’a and in the port of Hodeidah, west of the country, calling it “a dangerous escalation and extension of the aggression on our Palestinian people, Syria, and the Arab region.”
The Movement stressed that “the criminal enemy will not undermine the morale of our people or the peoples of our region and will not break the resolve of Yemenis or dissuade them from adhering to their supportive position for our Palestinian people until the end of the Zionist aggression on Gaza.”
Hamas mourned the martyrs of the Yemeni people who were killed as a result of the Zionist raids on Yemen and expressed its full solidarity with Yemen and the Ansar Allah group in the face of the US-UK backed aggression.
The Movement called on the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to “condemn the aggression on Yemen, to take effective steps and decisions to curb the Zionist aggression and encroachment in the Arab region, and to force it to stop its aggression and extermination war against our people in the Gaza Strip.”
Reacting to the aggression, Mohammed Al-Bukhaiti, a member of the political bureau of the Ansarullah resistance movement, said the “US-Israeli bombing of civilian facilities” in Yemen reveals the truth about the West’s hypocrisy and refutes all its humanitarian claims.
In a post on his X account on Thursday morning, Al-Bukhaiti reaffirmed that the Yemeni Armed Forces’ military operations in support of Gaza will continue.
“We will meet escalation with escalation until the genocide crimes in Gaza stop and food, medicine and fuel are allowed to enter its residents,” he added.

The Israeli attacks came just hours after the regime’s army said it had intercepted a Yemeni missile before it entered the occupied territories.
The raid triggered rocket sirens across Tel Aviv and the central part of the occupied lands, sending more than one million settlers to shelters, Israeli media reported.
Following the interception, shrapnel fell in the Tel Aviv area and damaged a school and several vehicles.
Since the onset of Israel’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, the Yemeni forces have conducted operations in support of the oppressed Palestinians.
They have hit targets throughout the occupied territories, in addition to firing at Israeli ships or vessels heading to or departing Israeli ports, in the southern Red Sea, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, the Gulf of Aden, and even in the Arabian Sea.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have stressed that they will continue their anti-Israel operations until the usurping regime ends its bloody Gaza onslaught.
