The Saudi-led Arab coalition announced on Friday that it granted four ships entry to Yemen’s Hodeidah port during the past 24 hours.

It said that six ships were waiting to unload their cargo at the port, while seven others were awaiting to enter the strategic port in western Yemen.

After 68 days of being obstructed by the Iran-backed Houthi militias, the Great K ship was allowed to enter the Red Sea port.

After a 39-day forced delay by the militants, the Volante was also granted entry, said the Arab coalition.

The Houthi militias in Yemen vowed on Sunday to support Iran in its fight against “the Zionist and American aggression.”

Their statement called for the Muslim nations to join the holy war and act as “one front against the Zionist-American arrogance.”

The US military struck three sites in Iran early Sunday, inserting itself into Israel’s effort to decapitating Iran's nuclear program.

Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, a member of the Houthi political bureau, also said that its ceasefire deal with Washington was before the "war" on Iran.

The group has been launching attacks on shipping lanes and Israel in what it says is in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza during the Israeli war. It agreed on a ceasefire deal with the United States in May to stop attacking US ships in exchange for an end to Washington's bombings of the group.

Al-Bukhaiti added that the Iran-aligned group's response to the US attack on Iran was "only a matter of time.”

Iran has fired hundreds of missiles and drones at Israel since Israel launched a surprise attack on its military and nuclear facilities last week. Israel’s sophisticated air defenses are able to shoot down most but not all of the missiles and drones.

Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations called on Sunday for an emergency Security Council meeting for what he described as America's “heinous attacks and illegal use of force” against Iran.
