A deadly Houthi attack in Yemen has killed 11 people, including eight military personnel and three civilians, according to Yemeni officials and reports from international news agencies. The attack reportedly took place in the coastal city of Mokha, an area controlled by Yemen’s internationally recognized government. A health ministry official in the city confirmed the deaths and said dozens of people were also injured in the incident. According to officials, the casualties included eight military personnel and three civilians. Initial reports about the number of wounded varied, with one account reporting 32 people injured, including six in critical condition, while military sources said more than 40 personnel had been wounded. The reported casualties occurred following an attack in the port area of Mokha. The incident adds to the continuing violence in Yemen, where the conflict between the internationally recognized government and the Houthi movement has persisted for years. Earlier, reports indicated that the Houthis had also carried out a drone attack targeting a Saudi oil refinery along the Arabian Sea coast. The reported incident comes amid continued tensions involving Houthi forces and regional actors. Yemeni government forces also claimed to have carried out drone strikes against Houthi positions in the southwestern province of Al Dhale’e. According to military statements, the strikes caused significant casualties and material losses among Houthi forces. The government forces claimed that several Houthi military positions were hit during the operation. Barracks, trenches, tunnels and other military sites were reportedly targeted, along with military vehicles and equipment. The latest Houthi attack in Yemen highlights the continuing instability in the country, where military confrontations and drone attacks remain a major security concern. The conflicting figures regarding casualties reflect the rapidly developing nature of the incident, and further updates may emerge as authorities assess the damage and verify the number of casualties. Yemen has experienced years of conflict, creating a severe humanitarian and security crisis. Any renewed escalation between Houthi forces and government-aligned forces risks further worsening the situation for civilians and military personnel alike. Authorities are expected to continue assessing the impact of the latest attack while military forces on both sides remain on heightened alert.
