Houthi missile attack on Saudi air base draws EU condemnation, Iranian denial

Yemen's Houthi group has launched a missile-and-drone attack on a Saudi air base, prompting EU condemnation of Iran-linked attacks and an Iranian denial of involvement.

• Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree announced an attack on King Khalid Air Base in Khamis Mushait using dozens of ballistic missiles and drones.
• EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen condemned "ongoing attacks" by "Iran's proxies" on Gulf states, while Iran denied involvement, calling the Houthis "completely independent."
• Saudi Arabia's Energy Ministry said facilities in the south were targeted earlier this week, causing fires and a temporary halt to some operations.
• Yemen's government forces said they recaptured positions west of Taiz and advanced in Al-Jawf governorate.
• Saudi Arabia's Civil Defense announced early Tuesday that the danger had passed in Khamis Mushait, Abha, and Najran after earlier security warnings.
