Houthis Claim Missile and Drone Attacks on Saudi Military and Oil Facilities
Yemen's Houthi group has claimed recent missile and drone attacks targeting Saudi Arabia's King Khalid International Airport, oil infrastructure including the East-West pipeline, and military bases in southern Saudi Arabia and Yemen. These strikes reportedly caused casualties among Saudi and allied forces, though independent verification and Saudi confirmation are lacking. The attacks come amid intensified conflict near the strategic Bab al-Mandeb Strait, raising concerns over regional security and global energy supply routes. The UN Security Council has extended sanctions on the Houthis amid Yemen's ongoing humanitarian crisis.
