The Yemeni military said seven ‌people including military personnel and civilians were killed and 30 others wounded in a ​Houthi attack on the Red ​Sea port city of Mocha, civilian ⁠infrastructure and armed forces.

"Four members ​of the armed forces and three civilians ​have been killed, and 30 others injured," the Yemeni military said in a statement ​early on Monday.

Air defences intercepted and ​shot down 11 Houthi drones that participated in ‌the ⁠attack, the military said.

The Yemeni military said the Houthi attacks had also targeted residential ⁠neighbourhoods ​in Mocha.
