SaveYemeni forces say they struck Saudi operations centre in Aden with ballistic missile
Brigadier General Yahya Saree, the spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces, announced that the force had struck the operations centre of Saudi forces at the Badr camp in Aden, according to a statement carried by the Yemeni broadcaster Al-Masirah TV. Saree said the strike was carried out with a ballistic missile and that the missile hit its target directly with high precision. He attributed the result to divine assistance in remarks quoted in the report.
The announcement concerns the Badr camp in Aden, where the spokesperson said the Saudi forces' operations room was located. The report did not provide further details on casualties, the extent of damage at the site, or the time of the strike, and no independent confirmation of the claim was cited in the account.
According to the same report, Yemeni military media had earlier reported attacks using FPV drones against Saudi military personnel along two border fronts, identified as Jizan and Asir. Those earlier reports described drone operations on the two fronts but did not specify the number of drones used, the targets struck, or any resulting losses.
The statement by the Yemeni Armed Forces spokesperson is the latest in a series of announcements about military operations attributed to the force. The report by Mehr News, citing Al-Masirah TV, presented the claims as made by the Yemeni side; the Saudi authorities have not commented in the account, and the details of the operations described have not been independently verified.
According to Mehr News, the Yemeni military media reports and the spokesperson's statement together describe operations on two fronts — a missile strike in Aden and drone attacks along the Jizan and Asir border areas — without offering additional operational detail.
