Satellite imagery reveals extent of damage to Hodeidah port as further strikes loom
- Nearly all of Hodeidah’s waterfront appears to be riddled with holes and craters, satellite imagery from Planet Labs shows
- More Israeli strikes are likely after a Houthi drone struck Eilat on Wednesday, injuring over 20 people
- Two vessels have called at the port since the July 16 strikes
- Vessels calling at Houthi ports are ‘effectively operating in a de-facto warzone’, says Vanguard Tech’s head of intelligence Ellie Shafik
The majority of Hodeidah port’s waterfront appears to be substantially damaged following many rounds of heavy Israeli air strikes in recent months. More Israeli strikes are likely in the coming days after a Houthi drone injured over 20 people in Eilat on Wednesday
