Houthis strike Saudi Arabia's Abha airport after Yemen government hits Sanaa airport over Iranian flight dispute
Yemen's Houthi movement fired missiles and drones at Saudi Arabia's Abha International Airport on July 13, 2026, after the internationally recognized Yemeni government struck Sanaa International Airport to prevent an Iranian Mahan Air flight from landing. The Houthis blamed Saudi Arabia for the Sanaa strike and warned airlines against using Saudi airspace. The UN Security Council held an emergency meeting and called for de-escalation, marking the first major Houthi-Saudi confrontation since a 2022 truce.
