The Houthi-aligned media reported several strikes on Houthi-controlled territories by the Saudi-led coalition, including an attack on Sanaa international airport. Additionally, seven air strikes were reported on the Harf Sufyan district in Amran governorate, north of Sanaa. Yemen's capital is currently under Houthi control. However, there was no immediate response from Saudi Arabia.
Earlier, the Saudi-led coalition vowed a firm response to an attack on an airport passenger terminal on October 10, describing it as a war crime, resulting in civilian casualties including 12 deaths. The Houthis have not claimed responsibility for the attack but renewed their warning against the use of Saudi airspace, except for Mecca and Medina airports.
Both parties have been increasingly targeting each other's air-bound infrastructure, with the Houthis calling the attacks a tit-for-tat measure.
