Ramadan "The Scorpion" Ondash and Abdallah Ondash are brothers, close friends, and ruthless training partners who have spent much of their lives pushing each other toward the highest levels of Muay Thai.
The 19-year-old Ramadan will face former friend Johan "Jojo" Ghazali in a flyweight Muay Thai co-main event of The Inner Circle 24 on Friday, July 31.
Six years his senior, Abdallah will compete earlier that evening when he seeks revenge against Chokpreecha PK TomTKalaiyont in a strawweight rematch. The event streams live in Asia primetime from Bangkok's iconic Lumpinee Stadium exclusively for members at live.onefc.com.
The Lebanese siblings have already competed on the same ONE Championship card four times, winning every bout between them. Remarkably, each brother has suffered only one promotional setback, and both defeats came when the other was not competing alongside him.
Martial arts has always occupied an important place in the Ondash family. Their father was a wrestler, while their brother Ahmad became the first family member to seriously pursue Muay Thai and later opened a gym in Lebanon.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — First responders searched damaged homes and buildings on Tuesday for possible victims of a powerful tornado that carved a path of destruction through several northeastern Wisconsin communities.
The twister touched down in the Fox Cities region, which includes Appleton, Menasha and Neenah, at around 1 p.m. Monday and remained on the ground for more than 20 minutes as it cut a roughly 12-mile path of destruction through an area, the National Weather Service reported. It was nearly a mile (1.6 kilometers) across at its widest, and it destroyed homes and businesses, flipped cars and knocked down rows of power lines in the region, which is roughly 100 miles (160 kilometers) northwest of Milwaukee.
The timing — it blew in when most people were awake and after warnings had been issued — could be why there have been no reported deaths, authorities said.
"I think what helped us was it was during the week," Menasha Police Chief Matt Albrecht said at a news conference Tuesday. "Everybody was at work. It was the middle of the day. Most people were not at home and at their place of employment."
Authorities said a number of people were injured and treated at hospitals, but they didn't know exactly how many or how seriously.

The attorney for Duane "Keefe D" Davis, the man charged with the first-degree murder of Tupac Shakur, is speaking out ahead of the start of his trial.
In an interview with The U.S. Sun published Tuesday, July 28, Mike Sanft said there "should never have been charges" against Davis in the first place, adding that his client's past comments about his alleged involvement in Shakur's murder were not necessarily truthful.
"It's exercising your First Amendment right to free speech," Sanft said. "Is it in good taste? Probably not. But once again, it's exercising in his right to free speech."
Davis previously recalled in his 2019 memoir Compton Street Legend the night Shakur was shot.
According to Sanft, authorities "should have rolled their eyes at Keefe and been like, 'Dude, seriously, why'd you even write that book? That's dumb.' Ultimately, when you really look into the book itself and the details of it it's not necessarily criminal."

Uefa has reacted furiously to reports Fifa president Gianni Infantino is planning to sell stakes in the men's World Cup to investors.
Infantino is plotting a scheme whereby Fifa would retain majority control of the World Cup and the rest would be sold, partly to each of Fifa's 211 national ******* ociations, and partly to private investment, according to reports by The Times and Financial Times on Tuesday.
The plan could potentially see Infantino installed as the "commissioner" of the World Cup when his Fifa presidency finally ends in 2031, a position which would prove extremely lucrative.
Uefa, the governing body of European football and a long-term critic of Infantino, said in a statement: "This crosses a line that football's governing institutions should never cross.
"UEFA takes it extremely seriously. So should every National Football ******* ociation. So should every stakeholder: leagues, clubs, players, supporters, governments and everyone who cares about the future of the game. The soul and governance of football are not ******* ets to trade - especially with zero transparency as to who gains financially.

Everton are seriously exploring a move for Liam Delap as they ****** s attacking reinforcements ahead of the new Premier League season, with Sports Boom reporting that the Toffees are considering whether they can offer the Chelsea forward a route back to regular football.
The 23-year-old arrived at Stamford Bridge in June 2025 on a six-year contract for around £30 million after an impressive spell at Ipswich Town. A year on, his situation appears far less secure. Delap endured a difficult first campaign in West London, scoring only once in 28 Premier League appearances, and Chelsea's continued recruitment in forward areas has further clouded his outlook.
For Everton, the interest makes clear sense. David Moyes wants to add more threat through the middle, and the club have identified the centre-forward role as a priority. In that context, Delap's name has emerged prominently, particularly because his profile remains attractive despite a season that did not develop as Chelsea had hoped.
Photo IMAGO
The key line from the original report is that "Everton are weighing up a move to rescue Liam Delap from his Chelsea nightmare after the striker's difficult first season at Stamford Bridge". That language reflects both the player's frustration and Everton's belief that an opportunity may be opening up in the market.

Liverpool are ready to test Paris Saint-Germain's resolve over Bradley Barcola, with Nico Schira reporting that a bid worth more than €100 million is being readied for the France winger. The 22-year-old is understood to be Liverpool's leading target as the club plans for life after Mohamed Salah, although PSG are said to value Barcola closer to €150 million to €170 million.
That gap is significant, yet it does not appear to have deterred Liverpool from moving the situation forward. The key line from the update is clear, "Liverpool are now ready to submit a bid to #PSG over €100M to try to sign Bradley #barcola ," which points to fresh intent rather than background admiration. It also underlines that Barcola has moved to the front of Liverpool's thinking in the wide forward market.
Barcola is widely regarded as one of Europe's most dynamic young attackers. His pace, one v one quality and capacity to stretch defences make him a natural fit for Premier League football, and Liverpool's recruitment team will know they are dealing with a player whose ceiling remains extremely high. If Salah's long-term succession plan is being accelerated, this is the sort of profile Liverpool would be expected to pursue.
PSG's stance is equally important here. The suggestion that Paris would demand €150 million to €170 million indicates they are in no rush to sell and would only engage seriously on elite terms. That leaves Liverpool with a familiar decision, pay a premium for a priority target or ***** s whether the market offers stronger value elsewhere.
From Liverpool's side, an opening bid above €100 million would carry weight and demonstrate conviction. It would also set the tone for talks, even if it falls well short of PSG's reported expectations. Clubs often begin with a number that reflects both intent and room to negotiate, especially in a deal of this size.

Yan Diomande has become one of the biggest names of the summer transfer window after reports emerged that Real Madrid saw a €90 million bid, plus a further €10 million in add-ons, rejected for the highly-rated RB Leipzig forward.
However, the Spanish giants were not the first club to seriously consider the 19-year-old.
According to SPORT, Barcelona had the opportunity to pursue Diomande earlier this year but ultimately chose to move in a different direction.
After weighing up the financial and sporting implications, Hansi Flick and sporting director Deco prioritised the signing of Anthony Gordon instead, a decision that has now left Real Madrid with a clear path to chase one of Europe's brightest young attackers.
The report states that Deco met Diomande's representatives in early May, when the player's name was seriously discussed as a potential reinforcement for Barcelona's attack.

Aston Villa are facing a serious battle in the race to sign AC Milan winger Rafael Leao.
According to Italian newspaper Gazzetta, Turkish giants Fenerbahce have leapfrogged Villa and are now considered frontrunners to sign Leao after tabling a significant bid.
Villa are on the market for a winger to replace Morgan Rogers, who recently completed a British record £117 million move to Chelsea, and Leao is one of several names under consideration.
The Portuguese international is expected to leave Milan this summer, but Villa aren't the only club keeping tabs on his situation.
Their reluctance to act on their interest could now come back to bite them, with Fenerbahce seriously pushing to beat Villa to the signing of the Portuguese winger.

Atalanta have missed their shot for Karim Alajbegovic, and more teams have joined the race, including Juventus, which are also defying Fenerbahce for Brazilian talent André, La Stampa reports.
Corinthians requested €17/18M plus €4M add-ons for 70 percent of the player’s card. The rest belong directly to him and his entourage, who are itching to move to Europe. He was close to Milan in January, but the transfer collapsed late. He notched 7 goals in 41 appearances last season.
The Bianconeri need to be decisive, though, as the competition from Turkey is strong. Instead, they have barely added anybody yet to focus on the exits. In the same role, they made a competitive offer for Frank Kessié, but they didn’t match his request and asked him to wait.
André isn’t the only youngster being chased by Juventus, as they are going after Alajbegovic as well. Atalanta were briefly in the lead, but Bayer Leverkusen raised their request after more sides are seriously eyeing him.
Fiorentina, Milan, and Napoli have also shown interest in the Bosnian starlet, La ***** one reports. However, the biggest threat comes from England. Chelsea have muscled their way into the fray and are currently the favorites, The Telegraph reports.

Tony Romo takes his golf seriously. The former Dallas Cowboy and current CBS color commentator has made a serious run at PGA Tour qualification in the past. He's even got his own official profile on the organization's site.
That hasn't yet led to a change in profession, but his love for the game is clear. It's what led him back to his home state to compete for a state ***** le on the links. That's how, in the middle of the 125th Wisconsin Amateur Championship, Romo -- who played high school golf in his hometown of Burlington along with football and basketball -- walked off the course in a tie for 74th place, then wound up working on snaps and dropbacks with a young fan at West Bend Country Club.
Those pictures, courtesy of Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reporter Jim Owczarski, show the former Pro Bowler in a candid moment of sharing his love of football at a moment where he could have leaned into his frustration with golf. Romo didn't publicize his trip back to Wisconsin. You won't find it on his social media pages. But even after a frustrating day carding a nine-over 80 -- his worst in three rounds -- he still found some joy and made one young golfer's summer by giving him some pre-snap tips.

Barring 15-year-old JJ Gabriel coming in for England Under-20 striker Ethan Wheatley, who has a minor calf problem, Manchester United's 25-man squad for their first two pre-season games in Helsinki and Trondheim has stayed the same.
That surely means anyone from the academy who has a chance of breaking into Michael Carrick's senior squad consistently this season will come from that group.
It means the academy players not involved – including the likes of Gibraltar international James Scanlon, midfielder Jack Moorhouse, who spent the first half of last season at Leyton Orient, and Gabriele Biancheri, who was at Rotherham, will have to seriously consider their next moves.
Australia full-back James Overy also falls into that group.
Overy missed a lot of football with United last term after being picked for both the Under-20 World Cup and Under-23 Asian Cup.

CHICAGO (AP) — Brianna Turner said on social media that her former team, the Indiana Fever, fired a male employee last season for ***** ual harassment. Turner, who was with Indiana last season but now plays for the Las Vegas Aces, also said Fever players were encouraged not to discuss the firing.
The Fever put out a statement Thursday that didn't directly address Turner's comments.
"Protecting our players and employees and maintaining a respectful, professional workplace is our top priority," the Fever said. "Our policy is to take concerns seriously, investigate thoroughly, and act promptly when appropriate to protect the people in our organization and ensure everyone is treated with professionalism and respect. Fostering trust and safety in that process means we do not comment on personnel matters involving former employees."
Turner's comments were part of a series of posts she made in defense of transgender athletes.
"To date there's been one out trans player in the league. They caused zero problems," Turner wrote in the posts on X on Wednesday. "An issue that has caused problems though? Last year on my WNBA team a male staff member was fired for ***** ual harassment, but we were encouraged to keep quiet about it. That is an issue."

Recruiting may not be on most people's minds with the college football season set to begin in about five more weeks, but Matt Campbell and his staff don't have the luxury of putting it on the mental back burner. They've done a tremendous job of rebuilding Penn State's 2027 recruiting class, while also keeping their eyes further towards the future.
The Nittany Lions already have a top-three Class of 2028 and now they could be getting their hands on another intriguing prospect from that group. Penn State has been recruiting four-star wide receiver Owen Johnson for much of this year, and in a recent interview with NittanyCentral, he spoke about their chances of landing him.
"Penn State definitely has my attention," is how Johnson began his response when asked about which teams he was focused on. Some of the other schools the team will be battling for Johnson's commitment are Nebraska, Notre Dame, and UCLA, but he confirmed that the Nittany Lions are in his top five.
The team has a serious need for wide receivers, with the position seriously lacking in the next two recruiting classes. They did have one of the best pass catchers in next year's group of prospects, four-star receiver Khalil Taylor, but Penn State was unable to land him a second time.
Perhaps the most important piece of information when it comes to Johnson is that he hails from Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania. The Blue and White have had a difficult time keeping recruits in-state, but they have a great opportunity to change their fortunes here. Johnson is clearly keen on playing for the team and becoming one of the crown jewels of a loaded 2028 class — now the onus is on Penn State to make a commitment worth his while.

Roma’s transfer market is experiencing one of its most heated phases: after seeing Greenwood, Garnacho, and Summerville all disappear at once, the Giallorossi must now seriously push to give Gasperini the four signings he has repeatedly requested.
Tony D’Amico continues to have a large list of names, especially in attack. But given the current situation, one of the key players in that department for next season could be Matias Soulè.
According to Il Messaggero, the Argentine’s chances of wearing the Giallorossi jersey for a long time to come are high, despite numerous transfer rumors suggesting several teams have their eye on him.
Gasperini is looking for strikers with different characteristics than the Mar de la Plata native, but this doesn’t rule out Gasperini’s desire to entrust him with the key to the attack next year.
Furthermore, it’s important to emphasize that, despite interest from several clubs, the 2003-born player has always put Roma first and has never considered leaving the capital. Soulè is still eager to prove himself, and Roma is ready to offer him the right platform to shine.

CHICAGO – Detroit Tigers right fielder Kerry Carpenter has been dealing with the strangest injury of his career.
Carpenter has a bruised heel on his left foot from – the Tigers think - his cleats.
Seriously.
Carpenter has always worn Under Armour cleats but his favorite pair was discontinued. So, he switched to a pair of New Balance cleats.
“Under Armour stopped making the model I've worn the last seven years,” Carpenter said before the Tigers played the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday, July 22. “So I switched to New Balance because those were the only ones that felt good on my feet.”

Aaron Donald continues to work out as he contemplates coming out of retirement, training both privately at the Los Angeles Rams' facility and at home in videos that he's been posting on Instagram.
Drew Brees has seen some of the workouts Donald has posted and it leaves no doubt in his mind that the All-Pro pass rusher could realistically return to the Rams. In an interview with USA TODAY Sports, Brees said he "absolutely" thinks there's a real chance Donald comes back because of the favorable situation he'd be put in.
"I do. I absolutely do," Brees said. "I absolutely do because first off, I've watched the guy on Instagram and he looks like he's staying in pretty good shape. I mean, I'm still pretty scared of him," Brees said. "For him to sit there and go, 'Wait a minute, you mean I can come back, I don't have to play a full game, I can play between 20, 25 snaps a game, it's always going to be a pass rush, I'm always going to be matched up against the worst offensive lineman and all the attention is going to Myles Garrett and some of these other monsters up there? Like, yeah, why not?' And truly make a Super Bowl run, I think that temptation might be too much for him to pass up."
The Rams' acquisition of Garrett is what got the ball rolling and the wheels spinning in Donald's mind. He's never thought about returning before, but with the chance to pair with another multi-time Defensive Player of the Year, Donald is seriously thinking about it.
Adam Schefter of ESPN says it'll be "a while" before we get a final decision from Donald but it's a very real possibility that he comes out of retirement after watching from the sidelines for the last two years.

Tarik Skubal is one of the best pitchers in MLB, but that may not be enough to keep him in Detroit. With Skubal set to become a free agent after the 2026 season, the Tigers are approaching a critical crossroads. While Detroit remains within striking distance of a playoff spot, the front office must ask itself a difficult question: is a late postseason push worth risking the loss of its ace for nothing this winter? If the answer is no, then the Tigers should seriously consider making the biggest trade of the deadline.
MORE: One player every MLB team will trade at the 2026 trade deadline

Every organization hopes to keep a pitcher of Skubal's caliber, but free agency can quickly change those plans. Unless Detroit is confident it can sign him to a long-term extension, trading him now may be the smartest move for the franchise's future.
A deal involving Skubal wouldn't simply bring back prospects—it could reshape the Tigers' rotation and farm system for years to come.

Ferran Torres’s future at Barcelona is looking increasingly uncertain amid growing interest in the forward following his World Cup heroics and the club’s reluctance to offer an extension just yet.
The Shark scored the winner in the World Cup final and has admirers in PSG, Real Madrid and Liverpool this summer, if the rumor mill is to be believed.
PSG certainly appear a realistic destination, with the club having presented a very attractive offer that has made Ferran have doubts over staying at Barcelona, according to Sport.
The report adds that Torres has also been hurt by the fact that Barca have never seriously considered him as first choice for the No. 9 spot following Robert Lewandowski’s departure.
Barcelona do want Ferran to stay but aren’t thinking about changes to his salary or his role in the squad and are now waiting to hear the World Cup winner’s thoughts on his future.

The explosive growth of artificial intelligence (AI) has ignited a powerful supercycle in the memory semiconductor landscape. As large language models (LLMs) and generative AI systems scale to trillions of tokens, the bottleneck is shifting from raw compute to the speed and capacity of data movement.
Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) is a dominant force in this ecosystem, not merely as the leading designer of graphics processing units (GPUs) but as the primary driver of demand for specialized high-bandwidth memory (HBM). The company's GPUs support the majority of hyperscale training clusters and inference workloads, forcing memory producers to align their roadmaps with Nvidia's performance targets.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
Three companies possess the technology and manufacturing expertise to produce HBM4 at scale: SK Hynix (NASDAQ: SKHY), Samsung, and Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU). Each company is aggressively expanding capacity and refining its manufacturing processes to meet Nvidia's specifications.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is taking the memory supercycle incredibly seriously. Over the last couple of years, Huang has quietly dropped some breadcrumbs that can be traced to Nvidia's favorable memory suppliers. Let's take a look at what Huang has to say about the memory bottleneck, and explore which AI memory stock you may want to put on your radar right now.

"Chrisley Knows Best" star Lindsie Chrisley has broken her silence on her May 2026 DUI arrest on a new episode of her "Coffee Convos" podcast.
The reality star, 36, made headlines earlier this year after she was arrested and charged with driving under the influence, attempting to evade police, reckless driving, and a slew of other charges while driving her car in Georgia.
According to Lindsie Chrisley, she's dealt with mental health struggles over the last year, adding that it's caused many problems in her personal life.
Speaking with MTV veteran Kailyn Lowry on their shared podcast, Lindsie said she takes her ongoing legal woes very seriously. She said that she hasn't been able to comment publicly because she's stayed off social media and deleted all the apps from her phone. "If people are sending me messages, I'm not getting them," she said.
According to TMZ, Lindsie was arrested and booked in jail in Georgia in May 2026 before bonding out the next day. She told the publication that she was pulled over for speeding past a car on a two-lane road after trying to avoid being hit by another car that swerved to avoid an animal.

Tom Brady and Logan Paul are no strangers to taking shots at one another. Their latest exchange saw the seven-time Super Bowl champion slap the WWE star at a recent event, but some are wondering whether it was a publicity stunt to draw attention to Brady's possible introduction to WWE. The strike came a day after the former football star expressed his desire to be invited into the wrestling ring.
On Friday, July 17, Tom Brady and Logan Paul shared the stage for a panel at Fanatics Fest in New York. Afterward, the two reportedly got into a heated discussion that ended with Brady slapping Paul across the face.
A video of the exchange made rounds on social media, with the two men standing close to each other, talking seriously. At one point, Brady removes his hand from his pocket and slaps Paul. NBA star Karl-Anthony Towns stepped between them to prevent the incident from escalating further, and Brady and Paul went their separate ways.
As of writing, the video has been viewed 9 million times, and many users aren't convinced the beef between them is real. "This is the worst scripted scenario I've ever seen and I watched Jersey Shore," one person commented.
Later, both Paul and Brady posted the video on their respective social media accounts. The influencer-turned-wrestler claimed he was slapped because he was "roasting" him over beating him at a flag football match. "Horrible example for the kids," he wrote.

President Donald Trump may be posting and talking about the fresh ***** assination threat he faces from Iran — but in private, according to those closest to him, he rarely brings it up.
Trump is still affected in his own way by the near-constant threats he faces as president, from both domestic and foreign actors. He has long taken a fatalistic view of his life — an outlook that's only deepened since the ***** assination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, just over two years ago, and subsequent attempts to harm him or his circle.
The threat to Trump's life from Tehran, which dates back to his 2020 authorization of the drone strike that killed Iranian military commander Qassem Soleimani, spilled into public view in Turkey earlier this month. Amid an unraveling ceasefire with Iran, Trump mused that he is its "Number One target" and ultimately ditched his new Air Force One, reportedly due to security concerns about the aircraft's defensive capabilities.
Behind closed doors, however, Trump shows a different, almost wry side as he considers his safety. More than a half-dozen aides and lawmakers close to him confirmed to Semafor that he doesn't dwell seriously on ***** assination risks — but when it does come up, he's known to "joke about it," one White House official said.
"He says it privately a lot, too: 'Nobody told me how dangerous it is to be president, and if they had told me, I probably wouldn't have run.' And he makes comments like that in jest, but there's a reality behind that," the official told Semafor.

Iran has reportedly instructed Yemen's Houthi terrorists to prepare to close a critical Red Sea gateway if the United States attacks Iranian power infrastructure, Reuters reported, a threat experts warn could sharply disrupt global shipping even if the group cannot completely seal the waterway.
"This threat should be taken seriously," Nadwa Al-Dawsari of the Middle East Institute told Fox News Digital. "With recent escalation and U.S. strikes on Iran, Tehran has already signaled that the Bab al-Mandab could become part of its response."
Three sources told Reuters on Thursday that Iran's leadership had discussed using the Houthis to shut the Bab el-Mandeb Strait and recently conveyed the request to the group. A source close to the Houthis said missiles and drones had been deployed near the waterway and that the group was awaiting an order to begin attacking shipping.

In this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with theoretical physicist and philosopher of physics Maaneli Derakhshani for a long look at the anomalous features cataloged across the moon, Phobos and the surface of Mars. The conversation opens with Lue Elizondo's remarks on lunar anomalies, then works outward to the Phobos 2 ******* ecraft and the object NASA's own mission literature once described as a monolith along with the reason SETI took that object seriously enough to study.
From there, Max walks Ross through the imagery that has drawn the most attention on Mars, from the so-called glass worm to the rectilinear formations near the Atlantis basin, applying the same fractal ******* ysis that NASA and the Department of Defense use to separate natural terrain from engineered structures. Grounding the discussion in Carl Sagan's own standards for searching for evidence of past life, Max makes the case that some of these features deserve to be treated as genuine open questions rather than tricks of light and shadow. The episode closes on the face on Mars and the geometric relationships between formations that, Max argues, may have been meant to be seen.

Brittney Griner sparks coaching buzz with latest off-court move during WNBA season originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Brittney Griner is still making a major impact on the floor for the Connecticut Sun, but her latest social media post has WNBA fans thinking about what could come after her playing career. The veteran center, who has enjoyed another productive season in Connecticut, revealed this week that she's spending time studying game film and learning the finer points of coaching. The post quickly sparked excitement among fans, many of whom believe Griner could eventually become a successful WNBA head coach.
While Griner remains focused on helping the Sun this season, her willingness to dive into the coaching side of basketball offered a glimpse at a possible next chapter once her playing days eventually come to an end.
Griner shared a video on Threads showing herself breaking down film from the Indiana Fever's game against the Chicago Sky. Rather than casually watching the matchup, the Sun star explained she was evaluating Indiana's post play and putting together scouting notes, adding that she plans to continue watching more games as she learns the coaching process.
"Taking this coaching thing seriously," Griner wrote alongside the video.

A black labrador had to be rescued from the UK's highest mountain after falling seriously ill when she ate cannabis, her owner has said.
Five-year-old Tokyo became unwell and even lost consciousness several hours into a hike up Scotland's Ben Nevis last Sunday, according to her owner Christina Bluhme.
"She'd been so happy eating treats and drinking and had been her very active normal self," Bluhme, a professional dog trainer, told CNN on Monday. The two had been trekking alongside Bluhme's 17-year-old son Magnus and their two-year-old golden labrador, Blaze.
Then things took a dramatic turn as they approached the peak of the mountain, which stands at 4,413 feet (1,345 meters).
"We were maybe an hour from the top when we noticed Tokyo got really weak in her hind quarters," said Bluhme.

CAIRO (AP) — The Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen said they launched missiles and drones at Saudi Arabia's Abha International Airport on Monday in response to airstrikes they blamed on Saudi Arabia that struck Sanaa International Airport earlier in the day.
No casualties were reported, but the attacks marked an escalation not seen since a Saudi-led coalition struck Houthi-controlled areas several years ago. Saudi Arabian officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the airstrikes in Yemen.
Houthi military spokesman Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree, in a video statement on Telegram, warned airlines against flying through Saudi airspace, saying these warnings should be taken "seriously until the blockade on Sanaa International Airport is lifted."
The internationally recognized government in Yemen said earlier that the strikes that hit Sanaa International Airport were meant to prevent an Iranian plane from landing.
The Houthis vowed to retaliate for the strike, which marked the first major escalation between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia following a period of relative calm.

Bears QB Caleb Williams gets good news before 2026 season originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears are heading into their third season together, and what a difference a year makes. Seriously.
Think about last year at this time. There were lots of questions surrounding if Williams was worth his No. 1 overall pick status. His rookie season was lukewarm, at best.
But, then head coach Ben Johnson came on the scene. He put his foot down and helped Williams lead this entity to the No. 1 spot in the NFC North. Then, they made the playoffs. Chicago not only made the postseason, they were favorites until falling to the Los Angeles Rams.
So, Williams was part of a winning team in 2025, and now, he's getting some respect for his hard work. It's only fitting.
