Operation Black Flag: IDF strikes Houthi-controlled ports in Yemen

In first Israeli strike on Yemen since assassination attempt on Houthi military chief, military strikes ports of Ras Isa, Hodeidah and As-Salif, citing military activity at sites; commercial ship hijacked by Houthis in 2023 also hit​


The IDF launched a series of airstrikes Sunday night on targets in Yemen controlled by the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels, dubbing the air campaign Operation Black Flag.

According to the military, the strikes targeted key terror infrastructure at the Houthi-controlled ports of Hodeidah, As-Salif and Ras Isa. Additional targets included the Ras Khatib power station and the Galaxy Leader, a ship hijacked by the Houthis in the Red Sea in 2023 and reportedly repurposed for terror activity.

Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a statement, declaring, “The same fate awaits Yemen as Tehran. Under Operation Black Flag, the IDF has powerfully struck Houthi terror targets. As I have warned, anyone who tries to harm Israel will be struck, and any hand raised against Israel will be cut off. The Houthis will continue to pay a heavy price for their actions.”
