Saudi-Houthi Escalation

Saudi Arabia Vows Retaliation After Houthi Attacks Wound 73

Saudi Arabia has vowed retaliation after Iran-backed Houthi attacks on four cities and energy facilities wounded 73 people and caused oil fires, Saudi authorities said. The overnight strikes, the largest such assault in years, came amid weeks of escalating clashes that have shattered a four-year truce in Yemen's civil war. Oil prices neared $100 a barrel following the attacks.
