Israel says struck Yemen’s rebel-held Hodeida port

DUBAI (AFP ): Defense Minister Israel Katz said Israel’s military on Monday struck “terror targets” belonging to the Houthi rebels at the Yemeni port of Hodeida.

The Israeli military “has just struck terror targets of the Houthi terror regime at the port of Hodeida and is forcefully enforcing the prevention of any attempt to restore the previously attacked terror infrastructure,” Katz said in a statement.

In a separate statement, the army said that “among the military infrastructure struck were engineering vehicles… fuel containers, naval vessels used for military activities and force against the State of Israel and vessels in the maritime zone adjacent to the port, and additional terror infrastructure used by the Houthi terrorist regime.”
