Yemen Government Reports Houthi Missile Strikes Kill Four Civilians in Mocha
Yemen's internationally recognised government reported that Houthi forces fired six ballistic missiles at the Red Sea port of Mocha, killing four civilians and damaging fishing boats. The Houthis claimed the strikes targeted Saudi-backed military assets and warships. Separately, the Houthi-run SABA agency said a drone attack targeted an Aramco facility in Saudi Arabia's Najran, with no confirmation from Saudi authorities. These attacks follow increased hostilities amid regional tensions involving Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen's ongoing conflict.
