According to Xinhua News Agency, the Israel Defense Forces confirmed on the evening of July 20 that it launched an airstrike against the Houthi armed forces in Yemen that day in retaliation for the "hundreds of attacks" Israel has suffered in recent months. According to a statement issued by the Israeli military, Israeli Air Force fighter jets launched airstrikes on Houthi armed military targets in the Hodeidah area, the main port city on the Red Sea in Yemen.

According to CNN, the Houthi-controlled Al Masirah TV station said that the Israeli attack targeted oil facilities in the port on the west coast of Yemen, killing at least 3 people and injuring 87 people, most of whom were "severely burned." The attack also hit civilian targets and a power station. Houthi spokesman Yahya Saraiya said that he would respond to the attack, saying that the Houthis would not hesitate to attack Israel's "important targets."

According to Cankao Xiaoxi, on the 20th local time, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Kanani issued a statement saying that Iran strongly condemned Israel's attacks on Hodeidah, Yemen, which destroyed Hodeidah's civilian infrastructure and injured Yemeni people. This is a manifestation of Israel's "aggression." The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) also issued a statement strongly condemning the Israeli air strikes on the Yemeni port city of Hodeidah that day, calling it an "unrestrained and dangerous escalation."
