The Israeli occupation military launched airstrikes on Tuesday targeting Hodeidah Port, a key coastal facility in western Yemen. This marks the first time Israeli naval forces have engaged in attacks on Yemeni ports, as reported by Israeli media, distinguishing this operation from previous strikes in the region.
However, the latest Zionist media reports mentioned that it was the advanced Saar 6-class missile ship that participated this morning in the bombing of Yemeni ports by launching two long-range missiles.
Following the strikes, the Israeli occupation military confirmed that missile boats from the Israeli Navy were responsible for the bombardment of the Hodeidah docks.

Israeli Security Minister Israel Katz issued a stern warning to Sanaa, stating, “If they continue to shoot at ‘Israel’, they will face a powerful response and be under a naval and aerial blockade.” Katz emphasized Israel’s commitment to maintaining pressure, stating, “This is what we did today, and we will continue to do so in the future.”
The recent escalation comes on the heels of airstrikes on Sanaa International Airport on May 28, which occurred shortly after the airport resumed operations with flights to and from Amman, Jordan.
Despite Israeli raids, Yemeni armed forces continue to carry out operations deep inside ‘Israel’ in support of Gaza and its resistance. They target Ben Gurion Airport and vital Israeli sites, amidst assurances that targeting ‘Israel’ will continue as long as the aggression against Gaza continues.
