Israel launched new airstrikes on Yemen’s Houthi-controlled port of Hodeida, warning Yemen could face the same fate as Iran. This marks the second Israeli strike on the port in a month. The attacks follow repeated Houthi missile and drone launches at Israel in support of Palestinians in Gaza. Israel claims it targeted Houthi military infrastructure, including equipment, fuel containers, and vessels used for attacks. The strikes also destroyed the port dock, which was under repair after a previous bombing. Israel accuses the Houthis of using the port to transfer weapons from Iran. Defense Minister Israel Katz said the goal is to prevent the Houthis from rebuilding military facilities. A Gulf official warned the situation could spark wider regional chaos. The Houthis have resumed attacking ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, claiming ties to Israel. Tensions remain high as fears grow over a broader Middle East conflict.
Pray against all the illegal weapon trade between Houthis and Iran. Pray for the LORD’s intervention in Yemen for dismantling the Houthis and their control in the country (The Holy Bible, Job 5:12).
Pray for the end of the Houthis’ attacks in the Red Sea. Pray for the international leaders to take immediate action to end the maritime disputes in the region. Pray for justice and peace to prevail in the region (The Holy Bible, Psalm 46:9).
