Israel and the Houthis trade bombs and bluster

A day later, Israeli jets bombed the port of Hodeidah in Yemen. They hit cranes, piers and oil-storage tanks, causing fires that burned for days. Scores of people were injured, according to Houthi-run media. The past ten months of war in the Middle East have been full of grim milestones. Now add to that list an unprecedented tit-for-tat between Israel and Yemen, two countries almost 2,000km apart.
