Houthis report Saudi airstrikes; Iran attacks ships; Israel to close UK consulate

Houthi rebels report Saudi airstrikes across several Yemeni provinces following offensives that injured personnel at Saudi oil facilities, indicating an escalation in cross-border attacks. Concurrently, Iranian forces attacked ships in response to U.S. actions, and Israel announced closure of the British consulate in Jerusalem in retaliation for UK measures on the West Bank. The convergence of these events suggests a regional escalation, though details remain unverified.
