The Saudi-led coalition carried out airstrikes against oil facilities west of Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, on Tuesday, according to Houthi-linked broadcaster Al-Masirah. Explosions were heard in Sanaa, but the broadcaster provided no evidence to substantiate its report. The strikes reportedly followed an evacuation warning issued by the coalition’s spokesperson, urging residents in the targeted area to leave for their safety. Earlier on Tuesday, Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels and the Saudi Arabia-led coalition had threatened fresh attacks against each other, raising concerns about further escalation. The report did not provide details about casualties, damage to the oil facilities or independent confirmation of the reported airstrikes. (PC: Times Now)
