Houthi Ballistic Missile and Drone Barrage on Saudi Arabia, Deep-Strike Escalation

Houthi forces launched a significant barrage of ballistic missiles and drones targeting multiple locations deep within Saudi Arabia, including Riyadh, Taif, Yanbu, and Jazan.

This marks a notable escalation in Houthi offensive capabilities and intent, threatening critical infrastructure and civilian areas.
