Yemeni Defense Forces Shoot Down an American MQ-9 Drone in the Sky of Hajjah

TEHRAN (Defapress) - Yemeni news sources stated in a statement by the Yemeni Armed Forces that the drone was targeted and shot down by air defense systems using domestically made missiles.

This operation was carried out while American drones have been seen many times in the sky of Yemen in recent months, and according to Yemeni sources, some of them have played a role in reconnaissance and intelligence operations against army positions and popular committees.

The Yemeni Armed Forces have emphasized that despite the limitations, they have been able to design and produce effective defense systems that are capable of confronting advanced enemy drones.

Yahya Saree, spokesman for the Yemeni armed forces, announced that we shot down an American MQ-9 drone in Hajjah province with a domestically made surface-to-air missile.

He said: This is the fourth drone we have shot down in the past two weeks and the nineteenth drone during the 'Promised Conquest' battle.

Ansarullah military spokesman stressed: Our military power has not been affected, and the US aggression against our country will not result in anything other than defeat.

In recent months, the Yemeni army, in support of the resistance of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, has targeted several Zionist ships or ships bound for the occupied territories in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait.

Yemeni army forces have pledged to continue attacking the regime's ships or ships bound for the occupied territories in the Red Sea until the Zionist regime stops its attacks on Gaza.
