Houthis’ Mokha Strike Kills 11 as Saudi Oil Facility Targets Escalate Tensions
The Yemen-based Houthis killed 11 people (3 civilians and 8 soldiers) and wounded 32 (including 6 civilians) when missiles and drones hit Mokha port, with claims of targeting a Saudi Aramco oil facility in Jazan in retaliation for incursions into northwest Yemen. The attacks follow a collapse of the truce and come amid broader Red Sea shipping and oil infrastructure tensions linked to regional blocades and the Bab al-Mandab chokepoint.
