The Israeli military has launched significant airstrikes on Yemen for the second time in over two months, targeting key ports and power stations operated by the Iran-backed Houthis.

The latest attack on the Ras Isa and Hodeidah ports resulted in major explosions, killing at least four and injuring dozens.

This escalation comes amid ongoing Israeli bombardments in Gaza and Lebanon, where over 41,000 Palestinians have been reported killed in 11 months of conflict, and more than 700 deaths in Lebanon in just eight days, reported by Al-Jazeera.

Israel’s actions are part of a broader campaign against the “axis of resistance,” a network of Iran-backed armed groups.
