Saudi Arabia Issues Broad Security Alerts After Week Of Strikes

Saudi Arabia warned people about possible security threats in several parts of the country.

The warnings included Mecca and Jeddah.

The warning in Mecca was the first one reported there during this war.

The warnings were later lifted.

Officials did not immediately say whether missiles or drones had hit anything.

Fighters called the Houthis, who are supported by Iran, have claimed attacks on Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia is also blaming another Iran-aligned group for damaging an important oil pipeline.

Fighting near Yemen's Red Sea coast could make it harder for oil and ships to move safely.

Other countries are discussing whether to help Saudi Arabia or avoid becoming more involved in the war.
