Houthis Claim Multiple Attacks on Saudi Aramco, Airports, and Military SitesPreviousNext

Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi rebels claimed six military operations over 48 hours targeting Saudi Arabia's energy, airport, and military infrastructure, including Aramco facilities in Yanbu, the Shaybah oilfield, King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, and Abha airport. The Houthis stated these attacks were in response to Saudi airstrikes on Yemeni civilian areas, which they said caused significant casualties. They warned Yemenis against joining Saudi coalition forces, citing recruitment risks and incentives.
