Houthis strike Yemen government-held and Saudi targets as violence intensifies

On Wednesday, Houthi forces launched a series of attacks against the internationally recognized Yemeni government, specifically targeting the Aden international airport. The assault involved the use of ballistic missiles and explosive-laden drones, according to reports from the country's Transport Ministry. State media confirmed the strike occurred at the site of the government-held facility.

This incident marks an escalation in the ongoing conflict between the Iran-aligned Houthi movement and Saudi-backed government forces. Recent military activity has been concentrated around the Bab el-Mandeb strait, signaling a broader intensification of violence in the region.
