An airstrike hit Yemen’s Hodeidah area on the evening of July 24 local time, according to an Odaily newsflash citing CCTV International News. The area is under the control of the Houthi movement. The Saudi-led coalition said it carried out strikes on Houthi military positions in Hodeidah. It said Hodeidah port was not included among the targets and added that all local ports remain open to shipping. In the coalition’s account, the operation was a “proportionate military response” aimed at military targets in Hodeidah that it said were directly linked to threats facing commercial shipping in the Red Sea. The coalition also warned that if the Houthis continue what it described as “hostile” actions, it would respond “without compromise” and keep taking measures to protect its vessels and the interests of Saudi Arabia. Al Masirah TV, which is affiliated with the Houthis, reported that the strikes hit facilities belonging to a state-owned telecommunications company in Hodeidah city. The outlet also said Saudi forces struck Kamaran Island off Yemen’s west coast.
