Yemen Airstrikes Escalate Tensions | San Francisco News

Airstrikes hit Sanaa International Airport in Yemen, sparking fresh tensions in the ongoing conflict between Saudi Arabia and Houthi rebels backed by Iran. The Houthis claim Saudi forces targeted the airport to stop an Iranian plane carrying their delegation from landing — a claim the Yemeni government denies, saying the plane rerouted safely to Hodeida. Yemen’s defense minister warns of retaliation as the country orders evacuations near the airport. Saudi Arabia has not confirmed the strikes, but the incident underscores the fragile de-escalation efforts and deepening regional tensions.
