Yemen: Mokha Port Out of Service
The port of Al-Makha in Yemen was completely incapacitated as a result of Houthi attacks targeting the port in August 2026, which resulted in the death of 10 people and injuries to 22 others. The initial material damages are estimated at around $79 million, including damage to the quay, logistics equipment, and facilities, as well as the destruction and complete burning of six commercial vessels. The attacks caused a total halt to port operations, preventing the entry of workers and staff, disrupting cargo movement, and halting government services, thereby impairing the essential commercial and service functions it provides to neighboring areas. These damages are part of the ongoing escalation of the conflict between the Houthis and the Yemeni government, significantly impacting the economic and service situation in the region.
