Aug 9 (Reuters) - Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis have resumed attacks on the Red Sea port city of Mocha, a Yemeni military spokesperson said.

Footage shown by Houthi-affiliated Al Masirah TV showed the launch of several ballistic missiles and drones, which Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree said in a post on Telegram targeted Saudi troop concentrations and weapons depots.

The Yemeni military said on X that air defences were intercepting a number of drones, adding Houthi attacks targeted residential neighbourhoods in Mocha.
