Houthi Spokesperson Says Saudi Jets Targeted Yemen’s Capital

Houthi forces were confronting Saudi fighter jets targeting Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree said Tuesday, raising concerns about a broader regional escalation. Saree said the group’s forces were actively responding as Saudi aircraft targeted the Houthi-held capital. The reported confrontation adds to tensions between Saudi Arabia and the Houthi movement after a relative lull that followed the 2022 truce. The escalation could disrupt regional airspace operations and weigh on risk sentiment across global markets, including crypto markets. It also raises the possibility of further military activity involving Saudi Arabia and Houthi forces.
