Houthis Launch Missile Attacks on Riyadh; Saudi Coalition Intercepts Several Missiles
Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi rebels launched multiple missile and drone attacks targeting Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport, an Aramco facility in Abqaiq, and a financial center, claiming significant damage and casualties. Saudi-led coalition forces intercepted several missiles aimed at Riyadh and southern regions, with civil defence issuing alerts before declaring the threats passed. The attacks follow intensified hostilities after the Houthis advanced near the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, amid ongoing Saudi airstrikes on Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen.
