Fighter jets targeted the port as well as several oil storage areas. The explosion injured several people, some of whom are being treated in the corridors of saturated hospitals. An attack that was quickly claimed by Tsahal. At the same time, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was ready to strike Yemen again in the event of a response.

The rebels say they are acting in solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza, which is in the grip of the war between Hamas and Israel.

We will respond to escalation with escalation.”said Muhammad Al-Boukhaiti, a member of the Houthis’ political bureau.
