Single source · Sanaa, Yemen ·
Several outlets relay a Houthi official's warning of a painful or swift response if the United States enters the war in Yemen, and Tasnim relays a similar warning from Ansar Allah official Ali al-Bukhaiti that targets US interests in the region. The National and WION also report Houthi retaliation threats in Sanaa after a Saudi-led coalition warning to civilians to evacuate, and WION reports blasts heard in Sanaa; these come from the same Houthi side and no independent confirmation was found.

Single source: 1 independent source.
Sources disagree on:
- Trigger for the threatened response differs: the US entering the war (Inquirer.net, Daily Sun, Malay Mail, Tasnim on al-Bukhaiti) versus an attack on Sanaa after a coalition warning (The National) versus US joining Saudi strikes (Malay Mail).
- Who is striking whom differs: Morocco World News, WION and Malay Mail describe Saudi-led strikes in Yemen, while Tasnim's report of Yemen's Supreme Political Council head Mahdi al-Mashat describes Houthi strikes on Saudi targets as justified.
- Scope of the threatened target differs: Tasnim quotes al-Bukhaiti threatening US interests in the region wherever they can be reached, while other reports mention only the US or Saudi Arabia.
- Action News Jax and KIRO 7 describe mutual Saudi-Houthi threats, which does not say who is striking whom and does not mention the US.
