Yemen's Houthi Rebels Claim Ballistic Missile Attack on Riyadh Airport

Riyadh. Yemen's Houthi rebels have claimed to have fired a ballistic missile at the main international airport in Saudi Arabia's capital, Riyadh. This claim by the Iran-backed Houthis on Thursday comes a day after three people were killed in a series of attacks in Saudi Arabia and the Yemeni government announced a major counter-offensive against them.

Houthi military spokesman Yahya Sari claimed that a ballistic missile successfully targeted King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, disrupting the airport's operations.
