Houthis claim six attacks on Saudi Arabia airports and oil facilities

Summary

The Houthis claimed six attacks on Saudi Arabia targeting airports, oil facilities and a military headquarters, according to spokesperson Yahya Saree. Saree said the group fired ballistic missiles at the Ras Tanura and Rabigh oil refineries, a missile at an Aramco facility in Abqaiq, and multiple missiles at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh. He also said the group attacked King Fahd International Airport in Dammam with a drone and targeted the headquarters of Saudi troops in Najran. Saudi Arabia has yet to confirm the attacks, so the claims are reported here as the Houthis' assertions only. Al Jazeera reports that the announcement comes despite talks between Iran and the Mecca pact countries in Tehran earlier this week.
