Armed drones belonging to the Houthis in Yemen launched an attack on the Israeli-occupied city of Jaffa (Tel Aviv), causing a series of explosions in the city. Following this attack, the Israeli army carried out an airstrike on the Houthi Port in Yemen, which is controlled by the Iranian-backed Houthis.
The Houthi-affiliated al-Masira TV channel reported that the city of Hudaydah had been targeted with a series of bombs, targeting fuel tanks at the port and a facility that supplies electricity to the city, and reportedly killing at least 19 Yemenis.
