Saudi Strikes Houthi-Rebel-Controlled Hodeidah Province In Yemen

Saudi military forces launched an aerial operation targeting the Red Sea governorate of Hodeidah on Friday. Hodeidah is currently under the control of Houthi rebels and serves as a critical entry point for supplies into the region.

Eyewitnesses on the ground reported that several strikes were directed specifically at the infrastructure of Hodeidah's port. Local residents noted multiple explosions in the vicinity of the harbor during the afternoon hours.

The Houthi-controlled Al Masirah TV confirmed the reports of the strikes, though detailed figures regarding casualties or specific property damage were not immediately available. The region remains a flashpoint in the ongoing conflict between Saudi-backed forces and Houthi insurgents.
