Two scenarios for the Yemen war | Houthis | Al Jazeera

Houthi attacks, backed by Iran, against Saudi Arabia have escalated the Yemen conflict, targeting civilian infrastructure and killing at least a dozen people. The Houthis continue these strikes to advance Iran's agenda, despite the risk of fierce retaliation, amid heightened tensions before the US midterm elections. The situation could develop into two scenarios: a major regional operation against the Houthis or a prolonged war of attrition. Riyadh is seeking to strengthen regional and international alliances, including with Pakistan and Turkey, to form a united front against the Houthis.
