According to The Times of Israel, operations at Najran Airport – located near the Yemeni border – have been suspended indefinitely after an attack that reportedly damaged the airport’s radar system. The strike was claimed by the Iran‑backed Houthi rebels.
The Times of Israel reported that the radar damage has rendered the airport unusable, halting all flight operations. This incident comes amid escalating fighting between the Saudi‑backed government and Houthi forces in the region.
The attack illustrates the continuing spillover of the Saudi–Iran proxy conflict into Yemeni territory, where Houthi rebels frequently target Saudi infrastructure.
