Houthi Projectile Injures Two, Damages Mosque in Saudi Arabia’s Jazan

Saudi authorities said the strike injured two civilians and damaged a mosque, several buildings and vehicles in an attack they blamed on Houthi militants.

  • On Saturday, the Saudi Civil Defense Agency reported that a projectile landed in the Al-Tuwal Governorate of the Jazan region, injuring two people and causing material damage to a mosque and buildings.
  • The Civil Defense spokesperson accused Iranian-backed Houthi militants of launching the projectile, warning that targeting civilian assets constitutes a blatant violation of international humanitarian law.
  • This incident adds to regional security challenges following Saudi Arabia's shutdown of its critical East-West oil pipeline after a separate drone attack from Iraq.
  • Heightened tensions across the Middle East persist, with Iran continuing to blockade the Strait of Hormuz until the United States agrees to its conditions, according to the Tasnim agency.
  • The U.S. Embassy in the United Arab Emirates urged citizens to exercise caution during the High Holy Days, reflecting broader security concerns in the region.
