Houthi Forces Fire 4 Ballistic Missiles at Rayyan Airport in Hadramawt

A strike on an airport in Hadramawt marks an expansion of the Houthi campaign beyond the Red Sea shipping lanes into Yemen's southeastern interior, a region tied to the country's rival power centers. The reported lack of casualty and damage detail leaves the operational impact unclear, and it is worth watching whether this becomes a pattern of targeting aviation infrastructure rather than a one-off. For markets, the relevance is indirect: any escalation affecting Yemen's air and sea links feeds into the same regional risk premium that shipping and energy traders already track.
