Why the Houthis are ramping up their attacks on Saudi Arabia

Several Houthi missiles and drones struck the presidential Al-Maashiq Palace in Aden, killing two members of Prime Minister Shaya Al-Zindani’s security detail, Yemen’s internationally recognized government said Thursday.

The Iran-aligned rebels claimed they were targeting an alleged Saudi military operations center inside the compound. A Saudi-led military coalition has backed the government in its long fight against the rebel group.

The Houthis claimed Thursday’s strike was part of a declared strategy of targeting Saudi military deployments wherever they are located.
