Saudi airstrikes killed 10 people and wounded 14 others across Yemen's Taiz and Al-Jawf governorates in a 24-hour period, according to Houthi-affiliated media. The strikes come after a four-year ceasefire collapsed in July, prompting renewed aerial bombardment by Saudi Arabia and retaliatory Houthi drone and missile attacks on Riyadh. Amid reports that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Yemen's government have requested US military assistance from President Donald Trump, a Houthi military adviser warned that any American intervention — including attempts to reopen the Bab al-Mandab strait (a narrow chokepoint between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden that the Houthis seized during a recent offensive) — would make US interests across the region legitimate targets.
