Houthi Airport Attacks Kill Three, Divert Flights; Advance in Southwest Yemen

The Houthi movement has claimed responsibility for attacks on Saudi airports, resulting in the deaths of three people and injuring dozens. The Saudi government confirmed the fatalities, including two women and a Sudanese man, and stated that the capital's airport was among those targeted. These strikes have raised international concern, with the British ambassador to Yemen highlighting the potential danger to thousands of people.

In parallel, Houthi forces appear to be making gradual advances in southwestern Yemen, nearing the city of Taiz. The group also targeted Aden's airport with an explosive device shortly before a flight from Cairo was scheduled to land. This incident forced the diversion of the plane to Jeddah and prompted a review of flight safety protocols in Aden, a crucial international hub for the Saudi-backed government.
