Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree claimed the strikes were retaliation for Saudi airstrikes on Hodeidah. Large plumes of smoke were reported near the Jizan refinery. The Saudi-led coalition confirmed a military response against Houthi targets, citing threats to commercial shipping, as the rebels reiterated their intent to block the Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
