The Yemeni military says seven people, including military personnel and civilians, were killed and 30 others wounded in a Houthi attack on the Red Sea port city of Mocha, including civilian infrastructure and armed forces.
“Four members of the armed forces and three civilians have been killed, and 30 others injured,” the Yemeni military says in a statement.
Air defenses intercepted and shot down 11 drones from the Iran-backed rebel terror group that participated in the attack, the military says.
Footage shown by Houthi-affiliated Al Masirah TV shows the launch of several ballistic missiles and drones, which Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree says in a post on Telegram targeted Saudi troop concentrations and weapons depots.
The Yemeni military says the Houthi attacks had also targeted residential neighbourhoods in Mocha.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
