Yemen's armed forces say they struck Saudi base in Sharurah with missiles and drones

Yemen's armed forces announced on Wednesday that they carried out a military operation against a Saudi military base in the Sharurah area, according to a statement by military spokesman Yahya Saree. The operation, he said, targeted weapons depots and command and control rooms that he described as directing operations against Yemen.

Saree said the attack was conducted with a large volume of ballistic missiles and drones. "By God's grace, the intended targets were struck precisely and directly," he said in the statement. He added that the operation was carried out in response to what he described as Saudi Arabia's continued operations in Yemen.

The statement did not provide details on casualties or the extent of damage at the site. There was no immediate comment from Saudi authorities on the claim. The reported operation is part of ongoing military activities between Yemen's armed forces and Saudi Arabia, which have continued amid the broader conflict in Yemen.

According to Mehr News, the Yemeni armed forces said the operation was a response to Saudi Arabia's continued operations in Yemen. The report by Mehr News added that the spokesman described the targets as being struck precisely and directly.
