Zionist regime’s warplanes conduct series of airstrikes on Yemen’s Hudaydah port

According to the Yemen Press Agency (YPA), there were no immediate reports of casualties or significant damage after the airstrikes.

The Zionist regime’s army said the targets included “engineering vehicles, fuel containers and naval vessels.”

The strikes came in response to recent Yemeni missile and drone attacks on Zionist regime’s targets.

Soon after Zionist regime’s genocidal war on Gaza began in October 2023, the Yemeni Armed Forces started carrying out operations against Israeli-bound or linked vessels in the Red Sea in what they say are acts of solidarity with Gaza, where close to 59,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children, have been martyred. Yemen has also launched missiles against targets deep inside the occupied territories.

On Friday, Yemen’s Armed Forces struck Ben Gurion airport near the city of Tel Aviv for the third time in just two days, this time hitting the facility with a hypersonic ballistic missile.

“The operation successfully achieved its objective, causing millions to flee to shelters and halting activity at the airport,” the army said in a statement.

The strike came as part of an aerial blockade that Sana’a has been enforcing against the regime since May, targeting Ben Gurion.

Yemen has said that the strikes would continue as long as Tel Aviv sustained the Gaza war and the deadly siege that it has been enforcing simultaneously on the coastal sliver.

In support of Zionist regime, the US announced the formation of a maritime task force in the Red Sea in December 2023 to protect the passage of vessels bound for the Israeli-occupied territories.

The Yemeni forces responded by ramping up their strikes against strategic and sensitive American targets, including the US warships and aircraft carriers that are deployed off Yemen’s coastline.
