# Multiple Military Strikes Reported Across Middle East Region
The United States has carried out additional attacks on Iran, with Iranian media reporting explosions in the coastal cities of Kish, Qeshm, and Bandar Abbas. Separately, a tanker in the region was struck, resulting in one reported death according to UAE sources.
In a related development, Yemen's internationally recognized government said its forces attacked Sanaa International Airport to prevent an Iranian aircraft from landing. According to statements from Rashad al-Alimi, head of Yemen's Presidential Council, the military targeted the airport runway specifically to block the Iranian plane. The government indicated it had sought to convince a Houthi delegation returning from Tehran after attending the late Iranian Supreme Leader's funeral to board a different flight, but ultimately decided to strike the airport when diplomatic efforts failed.
Following the attack on Sanaa airport, Yemen's civil aviation authority ordered the closure of all airports nationwide until further notice. The strike revived dormant conflict between Yemen's internationally recognized government and the Iran-aligned Houthi movement, which controls the capital city of Sanaa.
