📰 THE FULL STORY

Left-leaning coverage points to a fresh escalation in the Houthis' attacks on Saudi Arabia. Novara Media reports that 13 people were injured overnight in the latest round of fighting.

The New York Times reported that the Houthis described deadly Saudi airstrikes. According to the same report, the kingdom issued mass alerts to its population.

Novara Media centers the 13 people injured overnight, and the New York Times foregrounds the Houthis' account of deadly Saudi airstrikes alongside the kingdom's mass alerts. Their coverage emphasizes the risk of a wider war in the Red Sea. (Novara Media, New York Times)

⚠️ WHAT THEY AREN'T TELLING YOU
While much of the reported coverage centers on a $2.8 billion United States bomb sale to Israel, the direct casualty figures in the Houthi and Saudi conflict get far less attention. Novara Media reports 13 people injured overnight, and the New York Times notes the kingdom issued mass alerts. The connection between the Israel arms sale coverage and the Red Sea escalation is left largely implicit.

🌐 WHAT THE INTERNET IS SAYING
@Osint613 and @AJEnglish relayed Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree's claim that Saudi warplanes flew dozens of airstrikes in a single day across Taiz, al-Jawf, Saada and other governorates, hitting schools, bridges and roads. @MarioNawfal and @BashaReport reported Saree's assertion that Houthi forces downed a Saudi F-15 over Marib with a locally made missile after more than 450 strikes that week. @MarioNawfal cautioned that there is no independent confirmation and noted the group's reputation for exaggeration.

On Telegram, @intelslava described air raid sirens in Jazan, Abha and Khamis Mushait after Ansar Allah missile launches. @warmonitors and @France24_en flagged Saudi danger warnings for Mecca and Jeddah, along with 13 civilians wounded in the south.

@zriboua framed the fighting as a two-front assault on Saudi Arabia, citing the Houthi seizure of Mocha and drone strikes on the East-West Pipeline.
