Israeli bombers pound Yemen and Gaza as Human Rights Watch accuses Tel Aviv of genocide

ISRAELI bombers pounded Yemen’s capital Sana’a and its port Hodeida today, killing at least nine as they sought to break the Houthi forces, which have launched attacks in solidarity with Palestine.

The bombing raids followed a Houthi missile strike against Israel. The military said it targeted infrastructure in Hodeida, another port Salif, and the Ras Isa oil terminal, then took out energy infrastructure in Sana’a. 

Targeting civilian energy infrastructure is a war crime.
