Middle East2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported10m ago
On Thursday, Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi movement escalated their campaign of strikes against Saudi Arabia by targeting Riyadh airport with missile fire, leaving a plane badly damaged. The attacks are part of a broader effort by the group to shut down the kingdom's airspace and oil facilities amidst a reignited civil war in Yemen.
The recent escalation has resulted in three deaths this week. According to the sources, the Houthi movement stated they are targeting the kingdom in response to its military support for government forces in the ongoing Yemeni conflict.
