Houthis launched five missiles at the al-Maashiq presidential palace in Aden, Yemen, according to reports. The attack targeted a key government building in the city. The US embassy in Sana'a issued a warning about potential attacks on Saudi airports, advising staff and citizens to restrict travel. The Houthis are believed to have carried out the strike.
The attack comes amid ongoing conflict in the region. The Yemeni government, supported by a Saudi-led coalition, has been engaged in a war with the Houthis since 2015. The Houthis have previously targeted Saudi infrastructure, including oil facilities and military bases. This latest strike marks another escalation in the conflict.
The attack on the presidential palace in Aden is part of a broader pattern of violence. The Houthis have been accused of launching attacks on government buildings and military targets. The Saudi-led coalition has responded with airstrikes and ground operations. The conflict has caused significant humanitarian suffering, with millions of people in need of aid.
The US embassy's warning highlights the growing risks for civilians and diplomats. The situation remains volatile, with both sides continuing to exchange fire. The attack underscores the ongoing instability in the region and the challenges of achieving a lasting peace.
