🗞️ In-depth summary

Houthi rebels retaliated against Saudi Arabia with ballistic missiles and drones targeting Abha International Airport, just eight hours after a Saudi strike on Sanaa International Airport in Yemen. The Houthis' military spokesman, Yahya Saree, stated, "In response to the Saudi aggression, we struck Abha International Airport with several ballistic missiles and drones." A source opposed to the Houthis in Sanaa suggested the Saudi strike aimed to restore Saudi honor after an alleged Iranian violation of Yemeni airspace. This rapid Houthi response highlights a perceived erosion of deterrence in the Gulf, where strikes against Gulf states now appear to carry less risk and predictable outcomes.
