Saudi-led coalition launches air strikes on Yemen after Abu Dhabi airport attack

The Saudi-led coalition said late Monday it retaliated against the Houthi militia in Yemen after the rebels claimed responsibility for a rare drone attack that caused three oil tankers to explode in the United Arab Emirates, killing three people earlier in the day.

White House national security advisor Jake Sullivan said in a statement the United States condemns the attack and will work with the UAE and international partners to hold the Houthi rebels responsible.
