The attack hit Aden, the seat of Yemen’s internationally recognized government, as wider regional tensions intensify. Saudi-led coalition forces said they intercepted drones and missiles in response, while fighting between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis has also escalated. The developments risk widening instability around the Red Sea and Gulf region, where attacks on shipping and energy infrastructure have already raised international concern.
