Yemeni Armed Forces | Brigadier General Yahya Saree, spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces, stated:

The Yemeni Armed Forces affirm that what the Saudi enemy is promoting regarding our forces targeting holy sites in Mecca and Medina is a great and grave slander, and that these lies and claims no longer deceive anyone. Our operations target its oil facilities and military bases, and we announce them at the time.
