- Kuwait International Airport was targeted in multiple drone attacks that caused significant damage to its radar system but resulted in no casualties, state news agency KUNA said Saturday, citing the country's Civil Aviation Authority.
- A spokesperson later said the attacks were carried out by Iran, its proxies, and the armed factions it supports.
- Fears of the war widening have reignited after Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis launched missiles at Israel in their first attack since the current Middle East conflict broke out.
- The Houthis, whose involvement on Saturday risks broadening and prolonging a war that has entered its fifth week, warned their operations would continue until the “aggression” on all fronts ended. Israel said it had intercepted a missile from Yemen.
- Experts have warned the rebel group may attempt to block the Bab al-Mandab Strait south of Yemen, further disrupting shipping lanes around the Red Sea.
