The Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Jassim Mohammed al-Budaiwi, issued a formal condemnation following Houthi strikes on two major Saudi Arabian airports: Abha and King Khalid. Al-Budaiwi characterized the attacks as "systematic crimes" that deliberately target civilians, stating that such actions constitute a "flagrant violation of international laws and norms." He emphasized that the GCC stands in full solidarity with Saudi Arabia in response to the aggression.

Reports indicate that the strikes resulted in at least three fatalities and dozens of injuries. Beyond the immediate human impact, the attacks have highlighted ongoing vulnerabilities in the kingdom's air defense systems. The incident has triggered a broader regional response, with reports suggesting that Pakistan and Turkey are preparing to deploy additional troops and military equipment to bolster security in the area. While the GCC statement focuses on the legal and moral implications of the strikes, other reports highlight the strategic military consequences and the shifting involvement of international partners in the conflict. There is currently no mention of a Houthi response or justification for the targeting of these specific civilian facilities in the provided reports.
