Houthi attacks on civilian sites in Saudi Arabia have wounded at least 73 people, according to a coalition spokesperson. The strikes have affected communities across the southwestern regions of Abha, Khamis Mushait, Jazan and Najran, areas that have seen repeated militant activity in recent months. The coalition, which has been engaged in a prolonged conflict with the Iran-backed Houthis, did not provide immediate details on the nature of the weapons used or the specific timing of the attacks. The militant group has regularly targeted civilian infrastructure across the kingdom, drawing international criticism for strikes that have killed and injured non-combatants. The latest assault adds to the mounting toll on civilian populations caught in the broader regional conflict. Regional authorities have not yet issued statements on rescue and relief operations in the affected areas.
