Houthis claim drone strikes on Riyadh, Saudi military sites; coalition says drones intercepted
Yemen's Houthi militia has claimed to have carried out a series of drone and missile attacks targeting Saudi Arabia, including Aramco facilities in Riyadh, a military cargo plane at Sharurah Airport and Khamis Mushait Air Base, while the Saudi-led Coalition Forces said they intercepted and destroyed drones in the Eastern Region and Riyadh.
Saudi Arabia said it intercepted Houthi missiles targeting Riyadh and other areas, according to Al Jazeera and Anadolu Agency. Al Jazeera reported that the Energy Ministry said falling shrapnel damaged a building in the capital. The Korea Herald reported damage to an Aramco building in Riyadh’s financial district, while Hindustan Times called the damage minor. The reports differ on whether missiles were intercepted or hit their target, and do not give a consistent account of the damage.
