Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to Yemen Mohammed Al-Jaber said on Monday his visit to Sanaa aims to stabilize the truce and ceasefire, support the prisoner exchange process, and explore dialogue prospects between the Yemeni components to reach a sustainable and comprehensive political solution.

“Continuing the Kingdom’s efforts to end the Yemeni crisis, and in support of the Saudi Initiative of 2021 to reach a comprehensive political solution in Yemen, I visit Sanaa along with a delegation from the brotherly Sultanate of Oman to stabilize the truce and ceasefire,” Al-Jaber tweeted.

He added that Saudi Arabia has always stood with Yemen during dire political and economic circumstances and crises.

“Since 2011, these brotherly efforts have continued to achieve the aspirations of the brotherly people of Yemen to restore security, stability, and economic prosperity,” Al-Jaber noted.

Iran launched a missile attack Monday on a US military base in Qatar, retaliating for the American bombing of its nuclear sites.

Witnesses reported seeing missiles in the skies, followed by explosions.

Iran announced on state television that it attacked American forces stationed at Qatar’s Al Udeid Air Base. A caption on screen called it “a mighty and successful response" to "America’s aggression.”

The attack came shortly after Qatar closed its airspace as a precaution amid threats from Iran.

A statement by the Qatari Foreign Ministry said on X that the move comes to ensure safety of residents and visitors.

"The competent authorities announce the temporary suspension of air traffic in the country's airspace, as part of a set of precautionary measures taken based on developments in the region," the Ministry said.

Qatar condemned the attack on Al Udeid Air Base, but said it successfully intercepted the missiles and no casualties were reported. It said its airspace is now safe.

Iran said the attack in Qatar matched the number of bombs dropped by the United States on its nuclear sites.

It also said it targeted the base because it was outside of populated areas.
