The United Nations Security Council has formally condemned a series of military strikes carried out by Houthi forces against Saudi Arabia. In a joint statement, the 15-member council described the attacks as "escalatory" and "reckless," specifically highlighting the repeated targeting of Riyadh’s international airport.

According to the report, the airport in the Saudi capital has been the target of strikes 20 times within the current month. The council’s statement, released by the body's president, Evangelos Sekeris of Greece, emphasized the severity of the situation following a recent attack that resulted in 13 fatalities and left more than 300 people wounded. The Security Council’s condemnation serves as a unified diplomatic response to the ongoing regional conflict, focusing on the impact these strikes have had on civilian infrastructure and public safety in Saudi Arabia.

While the Security Council has taken a firm stance against the Houthi actions, the report notes that the conflict remains complex, with the Houthis receiving backing from Iran. The council’s statement also addressed the "continued" nature of these hostilities, signaling concern over the frequency and intensity of the strikes. The diplomatic body is calling for an immediate cessation of these actions to prevent further regional instability and loss of life.
