The Israeli military said it carried out air strikes against Yemenโs Hodeida Port on Monday, a day after the Iran-aligned Houthis fired a missile that struck near Israelโs main airport.
The military said in a statement that it attacked what it called Houthi terrorist targets in Hodeida and its vicinity.
The strikes killed at least one person and injured at least 35 people, the Houthi-run Saba news agency said citing the health ministry.
The Houthis shut down the area around the port and cement factory following the strikes, three sources said.
They said the extent of the damage at the port was unknown, yet the intensity of the strikes and fire caused severe damage to the containersโ berth.
