In a significant escalation of hostilities, US and UK coalition forces carried out an airstrike on Kamaran Island in Yemen's Hodeidah Governorate on Monday, according to Al Mayadeenâs correspondent in Yemen. This latest aggression comes as part of a broader campaign aimed at curbing Yemeni support for the Palestinian cause amidst the ongoing Al-Aqsa Flood battle. The airstrike on Kamaran Island, strategically located in the Red Sea, is the latest in a series of attacks targeting Yemeni territory. These assaults have led to numerous casualties, yet they have not deterred the Yemeni Armed Forces from continuing their operations against Israeli positions in the occupied Palestinian territories. The Yemeni forces have also established a formidable deterrent presence at sea, targeting vessels en route to occupied ports, further intensifying the conflict.
