At least 73 people, including women and children, were injured in the latest Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia, according to the Saudi-led coalition. The attacks targeted civilian and economic sites in four Saudi cities: Abha, Khamis Mushait, Jazan, and Najran. The coalition spokesman, Maj Gen Turki Al Malki, described the attacks as a "dangerous escalation" and a violation of international humanitarian law.
This is the most recent in a series of Houthi assaults against Saudi Arabia, including an attack on Najran airport that injured seven Saudis, a woman, a four-year-old child, and three others from other nationalities on August 6. The Saudi statement did not specify when the most recent attacks occurred, nor did it provide details on the weapons used or the extent of damage to the targeted sites.
