Iranian-backed Houthis today committed aggression under the UN Charter and a war crime under the Geneva Conventions. By attacking Israel's vital airport, the Houthis also risk escalation into regional war. I'm collecting all condemnations by UN officials—please send in replies.

Today's missile strike on Israel by the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen is a crime of aggression under Article 2 of the UN Charter. By attacking a civilian airport with no military target, resulting in eight civilian injuries, it is also a War Crime under the Geneva Conventions.
