Houthi Attacks Halt Mqa Port and Kill Soldiers
The activity at Yemen's Mokha Port has been halted due to repeated Houthi attacks since August 9. These attacks have resulted in the death of seven people, the destruction of facilities and equipment valued at approximately $16 million, and the loss of income for 1,300 workers. Additionally, clashes in Taiz and Saada have led to several soldiers being killed and wounded. The Houthi group targeted both military and civilian targets, while the government denies targeting the port as a civilian facility. This is the first such escalation since the ceasefire began in 2022 and it impacts expansion projects estimated to cost $130 million.
