Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia escalate as US pauses Iran strikes

Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have launched missiles and drones at Saudi Arabian energy sites, escalating the conflict in the region. Saudi Arabia responded with airstrikes on Houthi positions, and a Greek defense system in the kingdom intercepted incoming missiles. This escalation comes as the United States paused its strikes on Iran for the first time in two weeks. The Houthis claimed their attack was retaliation for airstrikes on the port of Hodeida.
