Al-Hodeida Seaport:
It is noteworthy that Yemeni Joint Resistance Troops are now 10 km from al-Hodeida seaport, the main target of military and humanitarian operations. This will clear the way to an even bigger strategic target which is clearing Yemen from terrorism of Iranian militias.
The airport is to the south of the city that oversee the Yemeni west coast. It includes a 3 km run way and a military air base. It is about 10 km from Al-Hodeida seaport. This makes the airport’s location very strategic for liberating the seaport.
