Eilat Port Faces Shutdown Amidst Houthi Attacks, Seeks Aid

Imagine a very important port in Israel called Eilat.

It's like a giant parking lot for ships.

But now, ships are scared to go there because of attacks in the sea.

These attacks are happening because of the war.

The ships are going a longer way around Africa, which is making it hard for Eilat to do its job.

Because fewer ships are coming, the port is losing money.

The port has asked the government for help, but if it doesn't get any, it might have to close, which would be a big problem.
