The Secretary-General of the United Nations expresses his concern about the expansion of the war in the Middle East after the Israeli attack on Yemen

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres expressed his deep concern about the Israeli raids on Hodeidah, western Yemen, and called on the parties to avoid harming civilians and infrastructure. The Secretary-General said in a statement last night: 'We are deeply concerned about reports of air strikes carried out earlier today (Saturday) in and around the port of Hodeidah in Yemen.' The Secretary-General of the United Nations expressed his concern about the risk of further escalation in the region, calling for restraint and avoiding attacks that could harm civilians and civilian infrastructure. Yesterday, Saturday, Israel launched a series of air strikes in which 20 aircraft participated (according to reports from inside Israel), targeting the port of Hodeidah in western Yemen and the oil facilities in the port, in addition to the electricity generation station in the governorate, causing the outbreak of a huge fire that Yemeni fire crews are struggling to control.
