Houthi Attacks Escalate Amid US Staff Evacuation
The US has ordered non-emergency personnel to leave Saudi Arabia due to heightened security risks, per Reuters. The directive follows recent Houthi attacks on Saudi infrastructure and airspace.
Saudi authorities reported intercepting a Houthi drone targeting Mecca, Al Jazeera notes. This comes after the Houthis claimed six attacks on airports and oil facilities across Saudi Arabia, including in Riyadh and Dammam.
A Saudi citizen was injured by falling debris from an intercepted Houthi missile, Civil Defense said per AA.com.tr. The incident underscores the ongoing threat to civilian areas amid escalating regional hostilities.
Houthi forces have claimed multiple missile strikes on Saudi oil refineries and airports in recent days, as reported by JPost. Riyadh's security situation is deteriorating with continued drone and missile activity.
