Yemen’s Houthis claim striking Riyadh airport, other Saudi sites
Pakistan and Turkey pledge troops to Saudi Arabia as Riyadh and its Yemeni allies push to retake Houthi-held territory.
Yemen's Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for striking Saudi Arabia's international airport, an Aramco refinery, and other targets on Monday. Simultaneously, the Saudi-led coalition reported destroying Houthi targets on the Red Sea coast, with intense fighting ongoing. Pakistan and Turkey pledged to deploy troops to Saudi Arabia under a new mutual defense pact following weeks of Houthi attacks.
The Yemeni military and the Saudi-led coalition announced their offensive against Houthi-held capital Sana'a, while Riyadh suffered loud explosions. The Saudi coalition stated they had hit Houthi military targets in Hodeida, destroying weapons depots and naval mines, thwarting an attack on Red Sea waterways. A Houthi spokesman said the group had struck Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport and an Aramco refinery.
The Houthi group has been attacking neighboring Saudi Arabia since the civil war's escalation, declaring a maritime blockade on its ships.
