SDRPY Provides Comprehensive Educational Support across Yemeni Governorates
In line with Saudi Arabia's commitment to Yemen's development and stability, the Saudi Development and Reconstruction Program for Yemen (SDRPY) has launched pioneering development projects and initiatives that have significantly improved the quality of education across various Yemeni governorates, SPA reported.
This support reflects the Kingdom's dedication to building a sustainable and inclusive educational future that contributes to Yemen's advancement and prosperity.
The program's efforts span general and higher education, as well as technical and vocational training, through the implementation of 56 educational projects and initiatives across 11 Yemeni governorates: Aden, Taiz, Marib, Hadhramout, Shabwah, Socotra, Al Mahrah, Lahij, Abyan, Hajjah, and Al Dhale.
To ensure continuity and access to education, the program has provided school and university transportation services through designated buses that transport students from their homes to educational institutions and back. This initiative has improved school attendance and eased the burden on families, particularly in remote areas facing challenging conditions.
These educational projects and initiatives are part of a broader effort comprising 264 development projects and initiatives across various sectors in Yemen, including education, health, water, energy, transportation, agriculture and fisheries, institutional capacity building, and integrated development programs.

Israel intercepts Yemen missile, Houthi rebels claim attack
JERUSALEM: The Israeli army said it intercepted a missile launched Monday from Yemen, whose Houthi rebels claimed an attack targeting Israel's main airport. 'Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago in several areas in Israel, a missile launched from Yemen was intercepted,' the army said in a statement, as loud booms were heard in the skies over Jerusalem. Yemen's Houthi rebels have repeatedly launched missiles and drones at Israel since the Gaza war broke out in October 2023 with Palestinian militant group Hamas's attack on Israel. In a video statement, Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said the group's 'missile force... carried out a military operation' targeting Ben Gurion International Airport near Tel Aviv. Monday's interception followed another the day before that was claimed by the Iran-backed rebels. The Houthis, who say they are acting in solidarity with Palestinians, paused their attacks during a two-month Gaza ceasefire that ended in March, but began again after Israel resumed its military campaign in the territory. While most of the projectiles have been intercepted, one missile fired in early May hit inside the perimeter of Ben Gurion airport for the first time. Israel has carried out several strikes in Yemen in retaliation for the attacks, including on ports and the airport in the capital Sanaa.

Rubio, Prince Faisal discuss Middle East developments in phone call
Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio discussed regional developments in a phone call on Monday, the Saudi Foreign Ministry said. According to a readout, the call also touched on bilateral ties between Washington and Riyadh and the strategic partnership between the two. The US and Saudi Arabia have been working closely on several files as ties between the two have improved since the Trump administration took office. Joint efforts have seen a potential nuclear standoff between India and Pakistan averted, and the two countries have also worked on de-escalating fighting between Russia and Ukraine as well as the fighting in Sudan. US President Donald Trump made his first official state visit to Saudi Arabia earlier this year. His first phone call with a foreign leader after taking office was with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
