The Houthi terror group fired missiles at Saudi Arabia after an attack on the airport in Sanaa, the Houthi-held capital of Yemen, the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen says.
The Houthis shot ballistic missiles toward the kingdom’s southern region, the Saudi-led coalition says.
“Air defenses intercepted a ballistic missile threat launched by the terrorist Houthi militia towards the southern region,” coalition spokesman Turki al-Maliki says in a social media post.
The attack on the Sanaa airport targeted an Iranian plane, said Yemen’s recognized government. The Houthis, who are backed by Iran, said the plane landed.
