Israel Strikes Ports and a Power Plant in Houthi-Controlled Parts of Yemen
Briefly

Israeli fighter jets targeted Houthi-controlled ports and a power plant in Yemen to deter missile attacks on Israeli vessels in the Red Sea, escalating regional tensions.
The attacks on Houthis, responding to their assaults in solidarity with Hamas, raise concerns about worsening the humanitarian crisis in Yemen, already suffering from civil war.
Bombing critical infrastructure like the Hezyaz power station risks exacerbating Yemen's severe humanitarian crisis, where millions face malnutrition amid ongoing conflicts.
The effectiveness of this bombing campaign to compel the Houthis to stop their attacks remains uncertain, as international efforts to protect ship routes intensify.
