From the article:
> The undersea FALCON cable carries internet into Yemen through the Hodeida port along the Red Sea for TeleYemen. [...] Land cables to Saudi Arabia have been cut since the start of Yemen's civil war, while connections to two other undersea cables have yet to be made amid the conflict, TeleYemen previously said.
Internet was designed to survive in case of a few random nukes here and there, but I guess that nuking every single connection will do the trick.
