The Iran-backed Houthis have renewed their assault on al-Makha port located in Yemen’s Red Sea region. The militant group deployed both ballistic missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles in the coordinated strike against the strategic installation.
According to Yemeni military officials, the attack resulted in at least seven fatalities. The primary targets of the operation were Saudi weapons storage facilities positioned at the port, indicating a focus on military infrastructure rather than civilian areas.
The renewed hostilities mark an escalation in ongoing tensions in the region. Al-Makha port continues to serve as a significant flashpoint for military activity, with various actors competing for control and influence over the crucial maritime location in one of the world’s most contested waterways.
