IDF Spokesperson RADM Daniel Hagari addressed the strike in Yemen on Saturday — officially named “Operation Long Arm,” saying, “Our pilots attacked Al Hudaydah’s port, a route supplying Iranian weapons and equipment.”
“We have no intentions to attack the Yemeni people. The Iran-directed Houthis attacked dozens of ships, their terror is controlled by Iran and harms the Suez Canal and world trade,” he added. “We’re ready across all fronts. Protection isn’t hermetic.”
