Insider sources who spoke to the network revealed that among the casualties were “experts” affiliated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards and Hezbollah, and only Saturday did the covert mission of these individuals to support Houthi attacks on ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden came to light.

According to a report from Sky News in Arabic, the recent attacks in Yemen resulted in the deaths of three members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp, six members of Hezbollah, and two activists from Iraqi “armed factions,” likely referring to pro-Iranian militias.

The identities of the remaining casualties have not been specified, but it is presumed many of them were Houthi fighters. In recent days, photographs of the funerals of some of these fighters have circulated.

The majority of the casualties were reportedly struck by bombings at military sites in Hodeidah, a port city on the Red Sea, known as a Houthi stronghold.

In recent days, the U.S. has taken decisive action against Houthi targets, aiming to curb their relentless attacks on merchant ships.

These assaults, intended to impose a “sea blockade” on Israel and disrupt crucial trade routes vital to the global economy, serve the broader objective of intensifying international pressure to bring an end to the conflict in Gaza.

While the Houthis assert their attacks solely target ships bound for Israel, the reality is they have targeted numerous unrelated vessels.

Following repeated warnings from Western nations, the U.S. and Britain launched a widespread offensive against numerous Houthi targets a mere 10 days ago.
