At least four civilians were killed when Houthis fired six ballistic missiles at the Red Sea port of al-Mokha on Friday, Yemen's internationally recognised government said.

The Yemeni armed forces aligned with the government said in a statement that the attack on the port targeted a civilian facility and economic and maritime installations, killing one port security guard, Reuters reported.

Two sailors were also missing and eight civilians were wounded, the armed forces said.
