Houthi Leader Issues Warning to Saudi Arabia Amid Escalating Conflict

Yemen's Houthi leader Abdul Malik al-Houthi has issued a warning to Saudi Arabia, stating that all Saudi oil and other vital facilities would be targets for the group's missiles and drones if Riyadh escalates its involvement in the conflict.

The threat comes after the Houthis fired missiles at Saudi Arabia, accusing the kingdom of bombing an airport under their control on Monday, marking a rupture in a four-year truce between the two sides.

In 2019, the Houthis claimed responsibility for attacks on two key Saudi oil facilities that temporarily knocked out more than half of the kingdom's crude output.
