US-UK Coalition Launches Airstrikes on Yemen’s Al-Hudaydah Port

According to SAEDNEWS, reported by Al-Masirah, the coalition targeted the ‘Al-Salif’ district in al-Hudaydah for the third time, raising concerns about the ongoing conflict's impact on the region. Details regarding the extent of the damage or any casualties resulting from these airstrikes have yet to be released.

In a statement reflecting its stance on the ongoing Middle Eastern conflicts, Yemen’s Armed Forces declared that they will not permit any Zionist ships or vessels bound for ports in the occupied territories to navigate through the Red Sea. This declaration comes as part of Yemen's broader support for the Palestinian people and their resistance efforts.

Yemenis have openly voiced their solidarity with Palestine, particularly following the escalation of violence that erupted on October 7, 2023. On that date, Palestinian resistance groups launched a surprise counteroffensive known as Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against Israeli forces, which sparked a devastating war on Gaza.

In December, the United States and Britain announced the formation of a military coalition aimed at targeting Yemen, a move that has drawn significant international attention and criticism. As the situation continues to evolve, the implications of these recent airstrikes on both Yemen and the wider region remain a focal point of concern.
