The Israeli military attacked Houthi targets in Yemen's Hodeidah port on Monday in its latest assault on the Iran-backed militants, who have been striking ships bound for Israel and launching missiles against it.

The Israeli Air Force, backed by Defense Minister Israel Katz’s stern warning—“Yemen’s fate is the same as Tehran”—has launched its latest airstrikes on Houthi-controlled facilities at Yemen’s strategic Hodeidah port.

The port of Eilat, already diminished, could shut down entirely without government assistance in what would be a win for the Houthis, officials warn.
