Guterres: Destruction of Yemen's Hodeida Port Would Be 'Catastrophic'

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres warned Monday that the destruction of the vital Yemeni port of Hodeida could trigger a "catastrophic" situation, after at least 149 people were killed in heavy clashes.

"If the port at Hodeida is destroyed, that could create an absolutely catastrophic situation," Guterres told France Info radio during a trip to Paris.
