Houthis Strike Back at Saudi Oil Facilities Amid Escalating Regional Tensions

The Houthi rebels in Yemen have claimed responsibility for targeting Saudi oil facilities on the Red Sea. According to their spokesperson, the operation was a retaliation for recent Saudi-led coalition airstrikes on the Yemeni port city of Hodeida and Kamaran Island.

The flare-up follows a self-declared Houthi naval blockade against Saudi vessels in the Red Sea, escalating wider regional tensions involving the US and Iran.
