Missiles Reportedly Hit Aden Airport

Two missiles reportedly struck areas around Aden's airport.

Aden's security office said there were no casualties from the attack. However, unconfirmed reports claimed that Saudi and Pakistani forces stationed near a camp inside the airport may have been the intended target.

The reported attack has raised questions about the growing involvement of Saudi Arabia and Pakistan in supporting Yemen's government.

Other Attacks Reported

The Aden incident was reportedly part of a wider night of military activity.

Reports also said:

  • A Houthi ballistic missile was intercepted over Khamis Mushait, Saudi Arabia.
  • Saudi strikes were reported in parts of Ibb and Taiz in Yemen.
  • Two missiles reportedly struck Aden airport.

The incidents could not be independently confirmed from the information provided.

Pakistan's Reported Role

According to the report, Pakistan recently flew four cargo aircraft carrying weapons into Aden.

It also claims that Pakistani military advisers are already operating on the ground alongside Saudi forces.

If confirmed, this would represent a more direct Pakistani presence inside Yemen rather than Pakistan's involvement being limited to supporting Saudi Arabia from Saudi territory.

Potential Impact on Pakistan

The reported Pakistani presence could carry wider implications for the country's role in the conflict.

The report suggests that any Pakistani military casualty in Aden could increase pressure on Islamabad and potentially turn its defense cooperation with Saudi Arabia into a more direct role in Yemen's conflict.

However, no Pakistani casualty was reported in the information provided.
