The Houthi movement fired missiles at airports in Najran and Jizan, two Saudi cities in the south. The strikes caused material damage and wounded three people, Al Jazeera reported. These attacks represent the latest in a continuing series of cross-border operations that the Iran-aligned Houthis have conducted against Saudi territory since the Yemeni civil war began. In this conflict, a Saudi-led coalition has supported Yemen's internationally recognised government in its fight against the Houthis. Initial reports provided limited details about the full extent of the damage or the precise circumstances of the attack. The strikes occur as fighting continues in Yemen itself, where Houthi forces have been engaged in combat over strategic positions near the Bab al-Mandeb strait. Saudi authorities had not issued an official statement regarding the attack at the time of reporting.
