The Israeli forces launched a massive strike on Yemen’s Port Hodeidah on Tuesday. The attack was confirmed by the Israeli Air Force through a tweet in which they accused the port of being used as a platform serving the terrorist regime for transferring combat means of the Iranian regime.
The Israeli Air Force posted on X, “A short time ago, the Air Force attacked military infrastructure of the Houthi terrorist regime at the Hodeidah port in Yemen. The Hodeidah port serves the terrorist regime for transferring combat means of the Iranian regime, which are used to carry out terror plots against the State of Israel and its allies.”

On September 15, The Israel Defence Forces carried out major strikes on Gaza City high-rises and eliminated a group of terrorists in Beit Hanoun during separate operations in the northern area of Gaza Strip on Sunday.
According to the IDF, Hamas had placed surveillance equipment in two of the Gaza City towers to track Israeli troop movements, while the third building contained observation posts.
“The terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip systematically violate international law, brutally exploiting civilian infrastructure and the Gazan population as human shields for terrorist activities,” the IDF said.
The army said it provided repeated warnings, used precise weapons and carried out aerial surveillance to minimize harm to civilians. The targeted strikes come as Israel estimates that more than 300,000 Palestinians have evacuated Gaza City.
