Status: published

The United States has ordered some diplomatic personnel to leave Saudi Arabia following reported strikes on an airport and an oil field that left at least three people dead. Officials cited escalating Houthi attacks alongside the departure directive. Whether the order signals a broader withdrawal of personnel across the Gulf remains unconfirmed, with authorities denying a wider drawdown.
