The Yemeni armed forces announced this morning, July 30, 2025, that they launched five drones targeting three Israeli sites in Jaffa, Ashkelon, and the Negev. The operations were conducted in response to alleged "genocide" against Palestinians in Gaza, according to a statement issued by the Yemeni Armed Forces. The statement detailed that two drones targeted a "sensitive goal" in the occupied Jaffa region, two drones hit a "military target" in the occupied Ashkelon area, and one drone struck a "military target" in the occupied Negev region. The Yemeni forces claimed all operations successfully achieved their objectives. Yemen has called on the Arab and Islamic nations to rally in support of the Palestinian people in Gaza. The statement declared that their operations will only cease when the aggression against Gaza stops and its siege is lifted. In a separate development, a source familiar with the matter told Iran International that a British couple, Craig and Lindsay Foreman, arrested in Iran in January on espionage charges, have been subjected to torture, sleep deprivation, and threats of execution while held in solitary confinement.
