"U.S. military strikes destroyed a major fuel port in Yemen Thursday that served as a key
source of “illegal revenue” for Houthi terrorists, according to U.S. Central Command.
The airstrikes targeted the Houthi-controlled Ras Isa fuel port on Yemen’s Red Sea coast, which the U.S. military said the Iran-backed terror group has used to “sustain their military operations.”
“Despite the Foreign Terrorist Designation that went into effect on 05 April, ships have continued to supply fuel via the port of Ras Isa. Profits from these illegal sales are directly funding and sustaining Houthi terrorist efforts,” read a statement released by CENTCOM."
