On Sunday, Houthi fighters launched a drone and missile attack on a military base in southern Saudi Arabia, targeting weapons depots and command centers. The attack aimed to counter the aggression against the Houthis and their people. The government forces retaliated by striking Houthi positions in Taiz and Mocha.
