Houthi attacks highlight rebel expansion
Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have demonstrated increased military capabilities, repeatedly attacking Saudi Arabia's main international airport and seizing territory near a key shipping chokepoint. The rebels operate in a large, mountainous region and are supplied with sophisticated weapons and training from Iran and its allies, including ballistic missiles and drones capable of reaching Gulf states and Israel. Despite extensive U.S.-led airstrikes and Saudi defenses, the Houthis continue to pose a significant threat, attacking strategic assets and disrupting regional trade routes.
