Houthis claim attacks on Saudi airports and oil facilities
Yemen-based Houthis say they struck Saudi airports and oil sites while clashes with Riyadh intensify.
Targets include major airfields
A Houthi military spokesperson stated that King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh was hit. Other locations mentioned include the airport in Dammam, an airfield in Najran, and a base in Khamis Mushait. The group also said they targeted an air base located in Khamis Mushait.
Oil infrastructure under fire
The militant group listed an Aramco facility in Yanbu among the sites they struck. They further claimed to have hit the Rabigh oil refinery and crude oil pumping stations. Additionally, the East-West Pipeline was included in their list of targeted locations.
Riyadh denies the claims
Saudi Arabia has not confirmed reports regarding these specific attacks on its territory. The Saudi-led coalition noted that forces responded to debris near oil sites but offered no direct comment. Houthis previously warned airlines against using Saudi airspace while exempting routes over Mecca and Medina.
