Diplomats, schools in Saudi capital take shelter: diplomats, residents

Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces ride in the back of a military truck at the Jabal Han front west of the city of Taiz following fierce battles earlier in the day as Yemen's Houthis reportedly attempted to seize control of the main route between the inland city of Taiz and the coastal city of Aden, on October 3, 2026. Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis on October 4, 2026, cut a vital supply route linking Taiz with Aden -- the interim capital of the internationally recognised government -- according to four security sources. The Houthi advance follows days of heavy fighting in and around the city of Taiz between the group and government forces.
