al-

It can mean "of" or "the" in a person's name. For example, "al-Baghdadi" means you are from Baghdad.

Or it can mean you're from a certain tribe or house. If your last name is al-Nahyan, it means you're part of the house or tribe of Nahyan.

Al-Hudaydah

Al Hudaydah (Arabic: الْحُدَيْدَة, romanized: al-ḥudayda)

is the fourth-largest city in Yemen and its principal port on the Red Sea and it is the centre of Al Hudaydah Governorate. As of 2023, it has an estimated population of 735,000
Al-Hudaydah has a large number of historical places, including more than 100 old mosques. It also used to have a university that was as old as al-Azhar
On 20 July 2024, during the Israel–Hamas war, the city was the target of an Israeli air raid in response to repeated Houthi attacks against Israel and an attack on Tel Aviv that resulted in the death of a civilian. The Israeli strike targeted port oil facilities and a power plant, resulting in a large fire killing six and wounding 87. The IDF claimed that they targeted military facilities. They lied.
