Saudi Vice Minister of Defense Khalid bin Salman said the targeting of Abha Airport by Iranian-backed Houthi militia is “a continuation of their immoral and criminal behavior that is in line with the malign behavior of their patrons.”

In a series of posts on Twitter, the minister said for 40 years the Iranian regime has been “spreading chaos, death and destruction, by sponsoring and financing terrorist organizations including the Houthis.”
