CENTCOM Launches Strikes on Houthi Fuel Infrastructure in Yemen
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has confirmed a series of airstrikes on the Ras Isa Fuel Port, located in Yemen’s Hodeidah region and under Houthi control. The operation aimed to disrupt the group’s ability to import, store, and distribute fuel — a critical component of their logistics network.
In a pointed warning to Tehran, CENTCOM emphasized the broader implications:
“The Houthis, their Iranian patrons, and anyone facilitating their terrorist operations should understand clearly — the world will not tolerate the illegal smuggling of fuel and weapons to a terrorist group.”
