Israel Strikes Yemeni Port City in Reply to Houthi Drone Attack.

Israel has launched airstrikes on the Houthi-held port city of Hodeidah in Yemen in response to a drone attack on Tel Aviv by the Iran-backed militants. The airstrikes targeted a power station and fuel storage sites, according to the Houthi group. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that the port was being used as a gateway for Iranian weapons supplies to the Houthis. The Houthis claim that the targets were civilian installations and have vowed to continue attacking Israel and commercial ship traffic in the Red Sea. The Biden administration has expressed support for Israel's right to self-defense. [Extracted from the article]
