The military said the targets were the Red Sea ports of Hudaydah, Ras Issa and al-Salif, a nearby power station, and the cargo ship Galaxy Leader. The ship, hijacked by the Houthis in November 2023, was being used to monitor international shipping, according to the military.
The Houthis' military spokesman said the Iran-backed group's air defences "successfully" confronted the Israeli attack. There were no reports of any casualties.
