Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for attacks on two Saudi airports that killed three people and injured dozens, according to Saudi officials. The strikes targeted King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh and another unspecified airport. The attacks occurred as tensions between Iran and Saudi Arabia continue to rise.
The Iran-backed Houthi group said it fired ballistic missiles at the airports, marking another escalation in the ongoing conflict. Saudi authorities confirmed the casualties but did not immediately attribute blame to any specific group. The attacks come amid a broader regional conflict involving multiple parties.
The conflict in Yemen, supported by Saudi Arabia and backed by Iran, has led to significant military operations. Recent advances by Saudi-backed forces in western Taiz have further complicated the situation. The Houthi attacks are seen as part of a larger struggle between regional powers. The situation remains volatile, with both sides continuing to engage in military actions.
