The IDF spokesperson confirmed that "The IDF recently struck and destroyed terrorist infrastructure belonging to the Houthi terrorist regime at the ports of Hodeidah and Al-Salif in Yemen using fighter jets." He added that "These ports are used for weapons transfers and represent another example of the Houthi terrorist regime's cynical use and exploitation of civilian infrastructure to promote terrorism. The strikes were carried out following multiple prior IDF warnings to minimize possible harm to civilian population."
