The US president, Donald Trump, has condemned the Houthis for their attacks on Saudi Arabia, calling their actions "very bad." The remarks come after a series of missile strikes targeted Saudi Arabian territory, prompting the country to halt flights at Riyadh airport.
The attacks, which occurred in the early hours of the morning, reportedly damaged infrastructure and raised security concerns. Saudi Arabia has not confirmed the exact number of casualties, but officials have emphasized the need for a swift response. The US has expressed solidarity with Saudi Arabia, reaffirming its commitment to regional stability.
This is the third such attack by the Houthis in less than a month, escalating tensions in the region. The group, backed by Iran, has been accused of launching numerous strikes against Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states. The Saudi-led coalition has been conducting airstrikes in Yemen, where the Houthis are based, in an effort to weaken their capabilities. The recent disruption of flights at Riyadh airport highlights the growing impact of the conflict on civilian life and international travel.
The situation underscores the ongoing instability in the Arabian Peninsula, with the Houthis and their allies continuing to challenge the sovereignty of neighboring nations. As the conflict persists, the international community remains divided on how to address the escalating violence.
