After diplomatic contacts between Saudi and U.S. officials, MBS spoke with Trump on Friday and requested backing for military action against the Houthis, which Trump granted.

The confrontation began after a Mahan Air aircraft landed in Sana'a and transported a Houthi delegation to the funeral of former Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei — the first such Iranian flights to the city in more than a decade.

Saudi Arabia subsequently blocked further flights, with a U.S. official describing Mahan Air as "the IRGC airline."

When another Iranian aircraft approached Sana'a on Monday, Saudi forces struck the airport, forcing the plane to divert to Al Hudaydah. A U.S. official claimed it was carrying weapons, missile parts, and military experts for the Houthis.

The Houthis later retaliated with missiles and drones targeting Saudi Arabia.
