A media outlet controlled by Houthi rebels in Yemen is reporting intense airstrikes on the port city of Hodeidah, alleging that Israel is behind them. Al-Masirah TV indicated that the strikes targeted storage facilities for oil and diesel at the port and the local electricity company, leading to deaths and injuries, although specifics were not disclosed.

The Israeli military has declined to comment on the allegations. The situation has escalated further, with a Houthi drone attack on central Tel Aviv early Friday, killing one person and wounding at least 10 others near the United States Embassy.

The increasing violence underscores the fragile security situation in the region, with both sides suffering casualties and significant infrastructural damage.
