Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia ignite fires at oil facilities and wound 73 people, officials say

Houthi forces launched a series of attacks on Saudi Arabia on Tuesday, resulting in fires at multiple oil facilities and utilities in the kingdom's southern region. Officials report that the strikes wounded more than 70 people.

The incident marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict between the Houthis and Saudi-backed government forces in Yemen. This surge in violence follows weeks of intensifying clashes that have effectively ended a four-year truce in the country's civil war.
