US-UK Coalition Conducts Airstrike on Yemen’s Houthi Port of Al Hudaydah

The US-UK coalition in the Red Sea launched a fresh airstrike on Yemen’s Houthi-controlled port city of Al Hudaydah on Tuesday, according to the Houthi-run al-Masirah TV. The airstrike targeted the port of Ras Issa, located in the northwestern district of al-Salif, the station reported, without providing additional details.

Residents in the area described the explosion as powerful, indicating the strike had hit a Houthi position. The coalition has yet to comment on the reported strike.

Since last November, the Houthis, who control much of northern Yemen, have launched anti-ship ballistic missiles and drones targeting Israeli-affiliated vessels in the Red Sea. These actions, they claim, are in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, vowing to continue unless Israel halts its military operations in the territory.

In January, the US and UK began a military operation, carrying out airstrikes on Houthi military targets. In retaliation, the Houthis have intensified their attacks on US and UK commercial and military vessels in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden.
