Saudi Arabia tries to halt the Houthi offensive with its aviation

TVI Notícias15 September 2026 at 14:36

Houthi rebels attacked a Saudi Arabian air base in response to the dozens of bombings by Saudi aviation against targets in Yemen. This attack represents an escalation in the conflict between the two parties.

Saudi Arabia has been trying to halt the Houthi offensive by using its military aviation, carrying out multiple bombings against rebel positions in Yemen. The Houthis, for their part, responded to the attack with a raid against the Saudi air base.

The conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis has been intensifying, with both sides exchanging aerial attacks. The situation highlights the continuation of the war in Yemen and Saudi Arabia's direct involvement in the conflict.

Why this matters

Readers in the region are directly affected by this escalation, given that the conflict in Yemen has an impact on the stability of the entire Middle East. The attack on a Saudi air base demonstrates that the Houthis have the capacity to retaliate against military targets on Saudi territory, increasing the risk of a broader conflict. This situation follows years of confrontations and reflects the persistence of one of the world's biggest humanitarian crises.

University of Évora creates borderless alliance for culture

The University of Évora is promoting the cross-border alliance "A Fronteira da Cultura" (The Border of Culture), which should bring together about 30 entities and institutions from the Alentejo and Extremadura, with a founding meeting scheduled for the second half of October. The project aims to create a cultural corridor between six cities — Cáceres, Mérida and Badajoz in Extremadura, and Elvas, Estremoz and Évora in the Alentejo — promoting joint projects, greater circulation of artists and researchers, and seeking European funding. The initiative also aims to connect with Évora 2027 and Cáceres 2031's bids for European Capital of Culture, transforming the peripheral position of these regions into an advantage for Iberian cooperation.
