It was the second attack on the Red Sea coast city in less than 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>A Houthi military source told the Houthi-controlled Al-Masirah TV that the attack targeted weapons depots and Saudi troop concentrations.<\/p>\n<p>A statement from the Yemeni Armed Forces posted on X said residential neighborhoods were targeted by ballistic missiles and drones in the attack, and that air defense systems managed to intercept some of the drones.<\/p>\n<p>Drones and missiles were also used during the earlier attack on Sunday. The Yemeni government-allied National Resistance Forces said at least seven people &#8211; four troops and three civilians &#8211; were killed and 15 civilians were injured in that strike.<\/p>\n<p>Fayed al-Noman, the information ministry&#8217;s assistant undersecretary, said the attack severely damaged port buildings and piers as well as commercial goods and food supplies. The military later said missiles landed in several areas, including near a television station.<\/p>\n<p>Mocha is a main port under Yemen&#8217;s internationally recognized government and has been renovated to handle shipping that avoids the Houthi-held port of Hodeida.<\/p>\n<p>The Houthis said they targeted military forces and warehouses.<\/p>\n<p>Yahya Saree, a Houthi military spokesperson, said they also targeted an Aramco refinery in the Saudi city of Jazan with a drone in response to Saudi drones breaching Yemen&#8217;s airspace over Hajjah and Saada provinces.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"content__post--2127ee7d-3d7d-476f-a892-a5df3c296231\">\n            <a name=\"post-update-2127ee7d\" class=\"post-update__anchor-link\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>            <time class=\"post-update__time-ago is-live\" datetime=\"2026-08-10T02:54:00-0400\"><br \/>\n              13m ago<br \/>\n            <\/time><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"post-update__headline\">Netanyahu vows no Gaza withdrawal until Hamas disarms<\/h2>\n<div class=\"post-update__bodytext\">\n<p>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday rejected a U.S.-backed Gaza peace plan and vowed there would be no military withdrawal until Hamas is &#8220;genuinely&#8221; disarmed.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, after more than a week of gradually escalating criticism of the plan, Netanyahu explicitly opposed it as he faced pushback from his right-wing base ahead of elections.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Israel rejects the 15-point document,&#8221; he said in a cabinet meeting, adding that the military &#8220;will not make any withdrawal until Hamas is truly disarmed and will continue to thwart threats against our forces and citizens.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/benjamin-netanyahu-us-gaza-peace-plan-reject\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Read more here.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"content__post--a88ccb6c-17a2-4217-b302-9a130dbf7ca4\">\n            <a name=\"post-update-a88ccb6c\" class=\"post-update__anchor-link\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>            <time class=\"post-update__time-ago is-live\" datetime=\"2026-08-10T02:54:00-0400\"><br \/>\n              13m ago<br \/>\n            <\/time><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"post-update__headline\">Iran says strait won&#8217;t open until the U.S. &#8220;corrects&#8221; behavior<\/h2>\n<div class=\"post-update__bodytext\">\n<p>Iran&#8217;s politburo-like body known as the Supreme National Security Council said the Strait of Hormuz will not open until the United States &#8220;corrects its behavior,&#8221; issuing new demands that could shake up talks on a deal to manage the waterway and traffic on it.<\/p>\n<p>Iran&#8217;s state broadcaster published the statement by the council&#8217;s secretary, Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr, who is also a commander in the powerful Revolutionary Guard.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. must never threaten Iran again, the statement said, and must permanently end the war with Iran and its armed allies in the region.
