On the 14th local time Yemen government forces said Houthi militants fired six
ballistic missiles at Mokha port in southwest Yemen, striking civilian and state
facilities and seeking to blockade and exacerbate civilian hardship. Yemen’s
Health Ministry condemned the strikes, warned of serious health and humanitarian
consequences, and urged the UN, international organizations and aid agencies to
denounce the attacks, protect critical civilian infrastructure, ensure continued
delivery of supplies and humanitarian aid, and scale up emergency health and
nutrition assistance to the western coast and other affected areas.
