Saudi’s strike Yemen’s Houthi-held Hodeidah: Rebel media
Saudi Arabia launched airstrikes on the Houthi-controlled city of Hodeidah in Yemen, according to rebel media reports. The strikes follow Houthi announcements of a maritime blockade against Saudi Arabia and attacks on Saudi vessels.
Saudi Arabia conducted military strikes against Hodeidah, a city controlled by Houthi rebels in Yemen, according to reports from media outlets affiliated with the rebel group. Houthi security sources reported late Friday that multiple sites had been targeted. Separate reports indicated that a Saudi vessel was struck in the Red Sea during the same period.
The airstrikes represent an escalation in the ongoing conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis, occurring amid a broader period of regional instability. The Houthis had previously announced a maritime blockade targeting Saudi Arabia and had conducted attacks against several Saudi ships. These military actions underscore the intensifying tensions in the region, which is also experiencing concurrent hostilities involving the United States and Iran, as well as Israeli military operations in Gaza and Lebanon.
