Iran war live: Tehran says Yemen escalation benefits ‘only’ Israel
One person has been killed and 11 others wounded in a new attack on Saudi Arabia’s King Khalid International airport, hours after Houthi-affiliated media reported an air strike on the rebel-held airport in Yemen’s capital, Sanaa.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei says Tehran is “deeply concerned about developments in the Arabian Peninsula”, saying the escalation “will only benefit the Israeli regime”.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has spoken with his Saudi counterpart, Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud, and offered to help facilitate dialogue between Saudi Arabia and Yemen’s Houthis.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says a third oil supertanker has struck a naval mine in the Strait of Hormuz in the past 24 hours.
