Yemeni government forces ambushed in suspected Houthi attack in Hodeidah

Wednesday, 9 September 2026, 06:16 · 1 min read

A convoy of Yemeni government forces was ambushed in a suspected Houthi roadside attack in the Hodeidah governorate (a Red Sea coastal region long contested between Houthi rebels and government-aligned troops), killing one person and wounding several others. A cameraman travelling with the convoy captured the moment gunmen opened fire on the vehicles. The attack underscores the continued volatility in Hodeidah despite years of internationally brokered ceasefire efforts in Yemen's protracted civil war.
