The United States has ordered some of its non-emergency personnel to leave Saudi Arabia following a series of Houthi attacks that have targeted civilian airports and critical infrastructure, resulting in casualties and significant disruptions. The directive, issued by the US State Department, comes amid heightened tensions in the region, with Washington assessing an increased threat to its diplomatic staff. While this measure reduces the US diplomatic presence in the Gulf, it does not indicate a full withdrawal. The US Embassy in Riyadh has also warned of potential further attacks, underscoring the volatile security situation.
