The strike reportedly prompted the airport’s shutdown and drew condemnation from the United Nations and European Union. The Saudi-led coalition blamed Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi movement and called the attack a war crime, while US President Donald Trump condemned it. The incident comes amid renewed Houthi threats and could intensify tensions across the Middle East, particularly between Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Iran and the United States.
