The Iran-backed Houthi militias in Yemen attacked on Tuesday the government team of the Redeployment Coordination Committee in Yemen’s Hodeidah city, reported the Saudi Press Agency.
The militants fired a Katyusha rocket at the gatherers of a meeting that was preparing to carry out the first phase of the redeployment.
A source from the government team accused the Houthis of seeking to obstruct any positive effort by the legitimate government to salvage the Sweden deal on Hodeidah.
He added that today’s attack “was not the first and may not be last”.
The Houthis had previously targeted former head of the redeployment team, Patrick Cammaert, by opening fire at his convoy in Hodeidah.
