The Iran-aligned Houthi movement, which controls northern Yemen and includes Sanaa, accuses Saudi Arabia of conducting airstrikes against the international airport in Sanaa. Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree describes the attacks as “blatant aggression” and says they end a period of de-escalation in the long-running conflict. He vows that Saudi Arabia “will bear the consequences” and that the strike will not go unanswered. No immediate response is reported from Saudi Arabia regarding the accusation. The internationally recognized Yemeni government is described as having support from Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states, a reference that reflects the broader regional alignment in the conflict. The reports therefore present the event primarily through the Houthi account, with the core points focusing on the allegation of an airport strike in Sanaa, the claim that a de-escalation phase has ended, and the Houthi promise of retaliation, while leaving the verification of the incident and any Saudi position unresolved in the coverage.
