Arab Coalition strikes Houthi arms smuggling vessels and vehicles

The Arab Coalition Joint Forces Command has released footage documenting airstrikes against vessels and land vehicles used by the Houthis to smuggle weapons into Yemen's Hodeidah province.

The released video, featuring black-and-white aerial surveillance, shows the tracking and subsequent destruction of boats at sea, land transport vehicles, and various facilities. The Coalition stated that these operations are intended to “prevent weapon shipments to the Houthis by organized crime groups.”

The strikes targeted maritime vessels identified as being used for sea-based smuggling and land vehicles parked in open areas. While the footage shows explosions, fires, and heavy smoke following the hits, specific dates, exact locations, and details regarding casualties or property damage were not provided. The strategic port city of Hodeidah remains under Houthi control.
