Houthi forces in Yemen reportedly launched missiles and drones toward Saudi Arabia, with Riyadh and an Aramco facility in Yanbu among the claimed targets. Saudi authorities said a ballistic missile targeting Riyadh was intercepted, while flames and a large column of black smoke were reportedly seen near King Khalid International Airport.
The Houthis claimed major strikes and massive fires at Saudi targets, but there is no independent confirmation that their weapons struck the claimed sites. Saudi authorities also reported intercepting attacks targeting areas including Yanbu, Taif, Baysh and Farasan.
The latest escalation comes amid renewed Houthi-Saudi tensions and a wider Middle East conflict, raising concerns over Saudi security, oil infrastructure and regional stability. Several major claims remain unverified as the situation develops.
