The official additionally advised foreign airlines to avoid Saudi Arabian airspace, though air corridors over the holy cities of Mecca and Medina were explicitly exempted. These declarations come as the Houthis battle the coalition defending Yemen's internationally recognized government, alongside Iranian warnings to Israel and the United States against restarting strikes.

Yemen's Houthis, fighting a Saudi-led coalition backing the internationally recognised government, are allies of Iran, which on Sunday warned the US and Israel not to renew strikes on the Islamic Republic after they had threatened a return to war.

The official also warned international airlines against using Saudi airspace "except for the airspaces of Mecca and Medina".
