Houthi rebels claimed responsibility on Monday for launching three simultaneous strikes on Saudi Arabian targets, according to Xinhua News Agency. The spokesman for the group, Yahya Saree, detailed the attacks, stating that the first operation struck King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, causing disruptions to air traffic.
The second operation targeted a refinery operated by Aramco in Rabigh, in the Mecca region, leading to a reported fire at the facility. The third and final operation targeted airports, a military base, and camps in southern Saudi Arabia, including unspecified "sensitive sites" in Najran and Jazan. The Houthi spokesman attributed the attacks to retaliation for what they described as intensified Saudi strikes on Houthi-controlled areas within Yemen.
Meanwhile, Israeli media reported on Monday that Israel is preparing for a potential attack against Iran, either in coordination with the US or independently.
