Two Houthi missiles targeted Aden International Airport in Yemen, causing explosions near the facility, according to Yemen's Saudi-backed government. Separately, Yemeni government forces launched an offensive to retake the Houthi-held district of al-Waziiya in Taiz, a mountainous area key to controlling the Red Sea port of Mocha, which Houthi forces seized last month. The twin developments reflect an intensifying conflict between Yemen's internationally recognized government and Houthi rebels, with both sides making moves to control strategic territory and infrastructure.
