However, a Houthi security official told AFP that the bombing destroyed a dock that had been rebuilt after earlier Israeli strikes.<\/p>\n<p>This new round of airstrikes came shortly after the Houthi movement claimed responsibility for launching missiles and drones at multiple locations in Israel, including Ben Gurion Airport, Ashdod, and Jaffa.<\/p>\n<p>Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree said the attacks were a response to Israel\u2019s airstrikes on Hodeidah and its continued military operation in Gaza.<\/p>\n<p>Saree stated that the drone attack had successfully achieved its goals and warned that Houthi operations would continue until Israel ended its war on Gaza and lifted the blockade.<\/p>\n<p>Since Israel\u2019s war on Gaza began in October 2023, the Houthis, who control much of northern Yemen including the crucial Hodeidah port, have launched several attacks on international shipping lanes in the Red Sea.<\/p>\n<p>Israel has responded with repeated air raids on Houthi targets, especially in and around Hodeidah. The port is a key hub for the delivery of goods and aid into Yemen and has become a regular target of Israeli strikes.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5Z8C1xoM55M?si=2qXBiejjNUGFgV_q\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nVideo Credits: Times News\/YouTube<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, the Houthis took responsibility for an attack on the Greek-owned ship Eternity C. According to maritime authorities, the attack killed four out of the 25 crew members on board.<\/p>\n<p>In May, the United States reached a temporary agreement with the Houthis to stop bombing campaigns in exchange for reduced attacks on global shipping. However, the Houthis later clarified that their operations involving Israel were not part of the deal.<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli military stated that it had identified new efforts by the Houthis to rebuild the same terror-linked infrastructure it had previously destroyed in Hodeidah, which led to the latest strike. Officials reiterated that the Houthis would face consequences for launching missiles toward Israel.<\/p>\n<p><em>References: Reuters, Aljazeera<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><br \/>\n    MI News Network<br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n<BR><\/BR><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.marineinsight.com\/shipping-news\/israel-launches-fresh-strikes-on-yemens-hodeidah-port-damaging-naval-vessels\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=israel-launches-fresh-strikes-on-yemens-hodeidah-port-damaging-naval-vessels\">Go to marine insight<\/a><br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Israel Launches Fresh Strikes On Yemen\u2019s Hodeidah Port, Damaging Naval Vessels Screengrab from YouTube video posted by Times News Israel launched fresh airstrikes on Yemen\u2019s Hodeidah port on Monday, targeting sites linked to the Houthi movement, which it said were being used to launch missile and drone attacks against Israel and its allies.
