CAIRO (Reuters) – Airstrikes targeted several parts of Yemen including its capital Sanaa and Hodeidah port early Thursday, Al Masirah TV, the main television news outlet run by the Houthi movement controlling much of Yemen, reported.
Airstrikes targeted two central power stations south and north of the capital Sanaa, Al Masirah TV added.
Yemen’s SABA news agency said four raids targeted the port of Hodeidah and two targeted the Ras Issa oil facility.
The Israeli military earlier on Thursday reported it had intercepted a missile launched from Yemen.
Iran-aligned Houthi militants have launched attacks on international shipping near Yemen since last November in solidarity with Palestinians in Israel’s war with Hamas.
