Houthi Ballistic Missile Strikes on Aden and Al Mukalla Airports

Houthi forces launched ballistic missiles targeting Aden Airport, a key civilian infrastructure hub, and reportedly Al-Rayyan Airport in Al Mukalla. The Aden strike is partially confirmed, while the Al Mukalla strike and a separate claim of a Saudi target in Aden remain emerging and unverified. These attacks signify an escalation in Houthi offensive operations against Saudi-backed government-held infrastructure in southern Yemen.
