Yemen : Houthis report $313M in losses from Israeli strikes on Hudaydah
Israeli air strikes on Al-Hudaydah Port in western Yemen have caused $313 million in losses since July, the Houthi rebels said.
The strikes have damaged the port’s cranes, power station, and tugboats, the Houthi-run Red Sea Ports Corporation said in a statement.
“The crimes of destroying Yemeni ports are flagrant violations of the principles and provisions of international law and the United Nations Charter,” it added.
The Israeli army launched air strikes on Thursday on Al-Hudaydah and the capital Sanaa in retaliation for Houthi drone and missile attacks.
The attacks were the third wave of air strikes launched by Tel Aviv against Houthi-held sites in Yemen since July.
The Houthis have targeted Israeli cargo ships or those associated with Tel Aviv in the Red Sea with missiles and drones in a show of support with the Gaza Strip, where over 45,200 people have been killed in Israel’s genocidal war since Oct. 7, 2023.
