Saudi Arabia has launched strikes on Yemen’s Houthi-held city of Hodeidah, according to media run by the rebel group. The report says the attack targeted a city that remains under Houthi control and is a key location in Yemen’s long-running conflict.
Houthi security sources also reported the strikes, according to the initial accounts. As this is a breaking development, independent confirmation and fuller details about the scale of the attack were not immediately available.
Hodeidah is one of the most important cities held by the Houthis, and any military action there is likely to draw close attention because of the city’s strategic role. Reports of new strikes point to continuing tensions in a war that has involved regional powers and armed groups for years.
With only limited information released so far, the immediate impact on the ground remains unclear. More details are expected as officials, local sources and international media provide further updates on the reported Saudi strikes in Hodeidah.
