The present disclosure concerns a porous body made of a ceramic-matrix composite material for an acoustic attenuation panel and a method of manufacturing the porous body. The porous body includes a plurality of interwoven ceramic fibers, a metal oxide matrix, and a plurality of channels interwoven with the ceramic fibers and interconnected together. The channels define at least one cavity. In one form, at least one channel is wrapped around a ceramic fiber. In another form, at least one ceramic fiber and at least one channel are twisted together. In yet another form, at least one channel is wrapped around a ceramic fiber and twisted with the ceramic fiber. The present disclosure also concerns an acoustic attenuation panel including the porous body and an aircraft propulsion unit having such a panel.
