Media affiliated with the Houthi group said that American-British aircraft targeted today, Monday, March 11, with a series of raids in various areas in Al-Hudaydah Governorate, western Yemen.

According to what was reported by the Houthi-affiliated Saba Agency, the American-British aircraft launched 3 raids in the Al-Jabbana area west of the city of Hodeidah, which is an open and empty area, and also launched 3 raids on the Al-Arj area in Bajil District.

Today afternoon, American-British aircraft launched 3 raids on the Ras Issa area, and no details have been received yet about the losses resulting from those raids.

In this context, the British Maritime Trade Operations Authority said this evening, Monday, March 11, that it had received a report of an explosion near a ship 71 nautical miles southwest of the port of Salif, western Yemen.

It was stated that the captain of the ship reported the sound of an explosion in its vicinity and confirmed the safety of the ship and its crew, without further details.

Since November 19, the Houthi group, classified as a terrorist group, has been carrying out attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea, which they say are linked to Israel, in response to its aggression and siege of the Gaza Strip since last October.

The Houthi attacks in the Red and Arab Bahrain caused great damage to the economy of most of the countries bordering the Red Sea, especially Egypt. They also hindered navigation in the strategic region through which 12% of global trade passes, and caused a doubling of the cost of transportation.
