Yemen's Houthis report Israeli airstrikes on Al-Hudaydah, Salif seaports

JERUSALEM / The Yemeni Houthi group on Friday reported more Israeli airstrikes on two of its seaports in western Yemen.

"An Israeli aerial aggression targets the ports of Al-Hudaydah and Salif," Houthi-run Al-Masirah TV reported, without giving further details.

No casualties or material damage have been reported so far.

Meanwhile, Israeli media, including Channel 12, reported that the Israeli army carried out an attack on three seaports in western Yemen, including the ports of Al-Hudaydah, Salif and Ras Isa.

The Houthi group, which controls these three ports, has yet to confirm the Israeli strike on Ras Isa port.

In recent weeks, the Houthi group has stepped up its missile and drone attacks against Israeli targets, in response to the Israeli deadly war on Gaza that has left more than 53,000 people dead.

On May 6, US President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire agreement with the Houthis brokered by Oman – a move Israeli officials reportedly described as “surprising.”

Israel, for its part, has since then carried out several airstrikes targeting vital facilities in Yemen, including the Sanaa airport.
