spokesperson Annees al-Asbahi said 171 people were injured in Thursday's attacks, according to preliminary figures, writes Skynews, broadcast Periscope.
If the figures are independently confirmed, it will be one of the deadliest days since Donald Trump's administration launched a military campaign against Iran-backed Houthi group last month.
The United States said the goal was to cut off a fuel source for Houthis.
Terminal Ras Isa has a storage capacity of three million barrels and was the first port built for oil exports from Yemen, about 40 years ago.
The United States has said the attacks will cease only if the Houthi bans the target of the lanes of Red Sea ships, which have been bombed regularly since November 2023.
Houthi say their attacks are a sign of protest for the Gaza war, though they stopped during a two-month ceasefire earlier this year and have not claimed anyone since the start of the Israeli offensive in March. /Periscope/
