Saudi Arabia Unleashes Dozens of Airstrikes on Yemen's Capital

Saudi Arabia launched dozens of strikes on Yemen's capital, Sanaa, on October 3, according to reports from the Houthi rebel group. The Houthis have accused Saudi Arabia of targeting residential areas in Sanaa with 26 airstrikes. The attacks come as part of a broader conflict between the two sides in the war-torn country.

The strikes are the latest escalation in the ongoing conflict, which has been marked by frequent exchanges of fire and missile strikes between the Houthis and Saudi-led forces. The Houthis have claimed several attacks on oil facilities belonging to Aramco in recent months, including a refinery fire that broke out on October 3 near Riyadh.

The humanitarian situation in Yemen remains dire, with three-quarters of the population unable to meet its basic food needs, according to the World Food Programme. The conflict has also had a significant impact on the economy, with many businesses and infrastructure affected by the ongoing fighting.
