The New York Times cited on Saturday four US officials claiming that "Israel acted alone" without any "US military involvement" when attacking Yemen.

According to the newspaper, the officials said that the Israeli aggression on the civilian energy facility in the coastal province of Hodeidah was in response to Yemen's successful unprecedented drone attack on Tel Aviv earlier this week.

Israeli war jets launched a series of airstrikes on Saturday targeting Ras Kathib power station in the port of Hodeidah, igniting oil storage facilities and leading to a massive fire that can be seen kilometers away, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported.

The Israeli occupation army spokesperson confirmed that the attack was launched by the regime.

The Yemeni Ministry of Health reported martyrs and wounded as a result of the aggression, confirming that civilians suffered severe burns due to the fires.

Civil defense teams are battling to extinguish the fires and flames engulfing the targeted zone, our correspondent added, noting that the size of the blaze is making the task extremely difficult.

Yemeni sources informed Al Mayadeen that these airstrikes were coordinated between US and Israeli forces, indicating that the nature of the targets hit by the aggression shows the blindness of the enemy.

They emphasized that there will be a response to the aggression.

Israeli media quoted official American sources stating that 12 F-35 fighters attacked multiple targets in Yemen in several attack waves.

Furthermore, an Israeli media platform mentioned that Italians assisted "Israel" with refueling aircraft in Yemeni airspace.

Following the Israeli aggression, the head of Yemen's negotiating delegation, Mohammad Abdul-Salam, affirmed that pressuring Yemen to cease supporting Gaza is "a dream that will not come true for the Israeli enemy."

"The brutal Israeli aggression will only increase the determination and the steadfastness of the Yemeni people and its brave armed forces in an escalating manner."
