A Telegram channel claimed that an attack attributed to the Houthis on Aden International Airport did not damage the airport or its infrastructure, including the runway. Instead, the channel asserted that the target was the headquarters of Saudi forces located near the airport.

The source also reported that eyewitnesses stated that dead individuals were evacuated from a Saudi cargo plane following the strike. The channel characterized the official narrative as a 'spectacle' designed to play the victim and seek external support.
