Israel Targets Houthi Oil Storage Tanks


(Washington Institute for Near East Policy) Michael Knights - On July 20, Israel responded to a deadly Houthi drone attack in Tel Aviv with heavy airstrikes on the Yemeni port of Hodeida, destroying most of the site's oil storage tanks. 28 oil tanks were located in the targeted area.
