🔸Following the escalation of tensions and attacks by Yemen’s Houthis, schools in Riyadh, the Saudi capital, shifted to remote learning for one week.

🔸Reporting on Sunday, Mehr 5, the French news agency said parents of students received messages from the schools indicating that Saudi officials had ordered schools to be closed for the entire week.

🔸The official reason for this decision was not announced, and some parents criticized the late notification and the lack of explanation.

🔸The decision was announced one day after a Saudi-led coalition said it had intercepted Houthi drones and ballistic missiles.

🔸The UN Security Council had previously condemned the increase in Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and said that in these attacks, a number of civilians, including women and children, were injured.
