Defence Secretary Wes Streeting has stated that the UK is not currently considering military strikes against Houthis. This follows an attack on Riyadh international airport that resulted in 12 deaths and approximately 300 injuries. Streeting emphasised that such an attack cannot possibly be justified under any circumstances. Despite the severity of the casualties and the impact on the airport, the UK government is not pursuing immediate retaliatory strikes against the Houthi forces at this time.
