> Houthi attacks hit airports in Riyadh and Abha, killing three people. A tanker was attacked deep in the Persian Gulf for the first time in weeks as regional tensions remained high, pushing oil prices up. Disruption in the Strait of Hormuz is hurting Iraq’s oil exports, prompting a roughly 13% devaluation of the dinar. Asian stocks fell for a second day, while U.S. equities retreated from a record high.
