Yemeni Houthi media reported on Saturday that two people were injured in Saudi airstrikes. According to al-Masirah television, which is associated with the Houthi group, a worker at a telecommunications building in the city of Hodeida was wounded. Additionally, a woman on Kamaran Island was also injured in the strikes. The Houthi-run outlet described the attacks as part of Saudi aggression. The information has not been independently verified.
Yemen has been embroiled in a civil war since 2014, when Houthi rebels took control of the capital, Sanaa, and other parts of the country. A Saudi-led coalition intervened in 2015 to support the internationally recognized government. The conflict has caused a severe humanitarian crisis, with thousands of casualties and widespread displacement. Hodeida, a key port city, has been a focal point of the fighting due to its strategic importance for aid delivery. Kamaran Island, located in the Red Sea, is also under Houthi control. Airstrikes have been a regular occurrence in the war, often drawing criticism for civilian casualties. The latest reported injuries add to the ongoing toll of the conflict, which continues without a political resolution. The Houthi statement did not provide further details on the condition of the injured individuals. The Saudi-led coalition has not yet commented on the allegations.
