A wave of retaliatory strikes has targeted Saudi Arabia’s airports, military bases, and critical oil infrastructure following the kingdom’s launch of a large-scale military operation against the Houthi movement. The escalation comes as tensions between the two sides intensify, raising concerns over regional stability and potential spillover effects. The attacks highlight the fragile balance in the conflict, where each side’s actions risk drawing further violence. Analysts are closely watching whether the latest offensive will de-escalate or deepen the crisis.
The surge in attacks, including against other Saudi airports, military facilities and oil infrastructure, has come in the week since a Saudi-led coalition launched a major military offensive against the Houthis.
