Yemeni state media says two new rockets targeted the city of Mokha, with one landing in the port area, Al Jazeera reports

Mokha sits on the Yemeni coast close to the Bab el-Mandeb chokepoint, and strikes near port infrastructure in this theatre have historically mattered less for the damage done than for what they signal about the durability of the ceasefire dynamics between the recognised government, Houthi forces, and their respective backers. The attribution question is the first one to resolve: Houthi fire at a government-held port reads differently from intra-coalition or southern-separatist violence, and prior episodes have shown the shipping and insurance market responds to who fired and at what, not to the strike itself. The established transmission channel runs through war-risk premia and rerouting decisions in the southern Red Sea rather than through any direct supply loss, since Mokha is not a material energy export terminal; tanker and container traffic transiting the strait is the exposed flow. Past bouts of port targeting in Yemen have tended to cluster, so the near-term tell is whether this is a one-off or the start of a sequence, and whether any retaliatory or coalition statement follows. Confirmation from a second source beyond the initial media report has historically been the point at which freight and insurance pricing reacts rather than the headline itself.
