Saudi-led coalition ordered evacuation of Yemen's oil facility in Sanaa as Houthis warned of retaliation. The site, a key oil hub, was targeted by Saudi forces, prompting warnings of further attacks. The move comes amid heightened tensions between the coalition and Houthis, with both sides vowing harsh responses.
The coalition's evacuation order followed reports of explosions in Sanaa, with Saudi forces striking an oil facility in the al-Sabaha area. Houthis warned of a 'harsh and painful' response if Saudi forces attacked Sanaa, targeting Aramco facilities and Saudi airports. The attacks have disrupted air travel and raised concerns about regional stability.
The conflict has disrupted regional trade and security, with Saudi Arabia facing ongoing attacks on its oil infrastructure. The coalition has launched strikes against Houthis, while the Houthis have warned of 'consequences' for their attacks. The situation highlights the ongoing spillover effects of the broader US-Iran conflict.
Houthis and the coalition have clashed over the past week, with both sides issuing warnings of retaliation. The attacks on Saudi airports and oil facilities have led to travel warnings and heightened security measures. The conflict continues to impact regional stability and global energy markets.
