Summary
Yemen's Houthi group claimed to have carried out multiple military operations targeting Saudi Arabia, including King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, an Aramco refinery in Rabigh, Abha Airport, Khamis Mushait Air Base, and other military sites, using ballistic and cruise missiles and drones. The Houthis stated the operations were in response to recent Saudi airstrikes on Yemen. Saudi authorities did not immediately confirm the attacks or provide damage assessments. The Saudi-led coalition reported foiling a Houthi plot targeting Red Sea waterways and said it destroyed Houthi military targets in Yemen. No independent verification of the reported damage was available.
