Houthi attack on Mocha kills 7, wounds 30, Yemeni military reports

The Yemeni military reported that a Houthi strike on the Red Sea port city of Mocha resulted in the deaths of seven individuals, including both military personnel and civilians, and left 30 others wounded. The attack targeted civilian infrastructure and armed forces installations within the city, causing significant damage and prompting an emergency response from local authorities.

The incident underscores the intensifying hostilities in Yemen’s coastal regions, where Houthi forces have increasingly focused on strategic ports to disrupt government supply lines. The casualties add to the growing humanitarian toll of the conflict, prompting calls for heightened protection of civilian areas and further monitoring by international observers.
