TEHRAN (Defapress) - The Yemeni armed forces statement said: “We targeted the aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman and several other warships during a joint operation.”

The statement said that the second operation was carried out in the northern Red Sea region with several cruise missiles and drones.

The statement added that the operation to engage the aircraft carrier and its affiliated ships lasted 9 hours, and this is the fifth time that the US aircraft carrier has been targeted since it arrived in the Red Sea.

The Yemeni armed forces added: “The military operation successfully achieved its objectives with the help of God and forced the aircraft carrier to leave the area and flee to the far north of the Red Sea.”
