Houthis intensify strikes across Yemen and Saudi Arabia

Houthi forces have conducted coordinated attacks on multiple targets across Yemen, with projectiles striking Aden's international airport and a coastguard installation in the southern port city. The latest assault adds to a pattern of increasingly bold operations by the Iran-aligned group against government-controlled areas and infrastructure.

Aden, a key strategic hub in southern Yemen, has faced repeated Houthi bombardment in recent months as the militant group seeks to extend its reach beyond territories it controls. The airport, a vital conduit for humanitarian aid and commercial activity, remains a frequent focus of such attacks.

The strikes also reportedly extended into Saudi Arabian territory, continuing the cross-border dimension of the Yemen conflict that has drawn regional and international concern. Saudi Arabia, which leads a military coalition supporting Yemen's internationally recognized government, has faced intermittent Houthi attacks throughout the conflict.

The Houthi movement has claimed responsibility for previous strikes and maintained that its attacks target military installations. The group has become increasingly proficient at deploying advanced weaponry despite international sanctions and a years-long military campaign against it.
