Yemeni Forces Strike Najran Airport in Saudi Arabia

The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) have carried out a military operation targeting Saudi Arabia's airport in Najran, according to a statement by military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree. The operation was described as precise, though further details regarding the nature of the attack or any resulting damage were not immediately disclosed.

In his statement, Saree warned that any further violation of Yemeni airspace "will not go unanswered or unpunished." The remarks come amid ongoing tensions between Yemen and Saudi Arabia, which has been leading a military coalition in Yemen since 2015.

The attack on Najran airport is the latest in a series of incidents in the conflict, which has seen frequent cross-border strikes. The Yemeni forces have previously targeted Saudi airports and other infrastructure in response to coalition airstrikes on Yemeni territory.

The Saudi-led coalition has not yet issued an official response to the reported attack. The incident underscores the continued volatility in the region despite efforts to negotiate a ceasefire.

According to Mehr News Agency, the statement was released by the Yemeni military spokesman, who emphasized the precision of the operation. The report did not include independent verification of the attack or its impact.
