Seven people were killed and 30 injured in an attack by Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis on the port city of Mocha, according to local reports (illawarramercury.com.au). The attack targeted military positions and infrastructure, marking another escalation in the ongoing conflict. The Houthis, supported by Iran, have intensified their operations in recent days, striking both Yemeni and Saudi Arabian targets.
The rebels claimed responsibility for attacks on Saudi Arabia's Aramco oil facilities near the Red Sea, as well as strikes on the Mocha port (thanhnien.vn). These attacks have caused significant casualties and damage, with at least 11 deaths reported in a separate strike on Sunday (rfi.fr). The Houthis have also launched rockets and drones against Saudi-backed forces, intensifying pressure on regional allies (it-boltwise.de).
The Arab League has condemned the attacks, citing civilian casualties and material damage (ansa.it). Meanwhile, Iran has appointed a former commander of its Revolutionary Guards to lead the National Security Council, signaling continued support for the Houthis (rfi.fr). The situation remains volatile, with reports of sustained attacks from multiple fronts (vietnamplus.vn).
