Houthi armed group claims another attack on Saudi capital

On the evening of September 24 local time, Yemen's Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree released a video statement claiming that the Houthis used multiple ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones to attack a "sensitive target" in the Saudi capital Riyadh, as well as Saudi Aramco facilities in the Red Sea coastal city of Yanbu. The Saudi side had earlier said it intercepted 6 ballistic missiles launched by the Houthis toward the southern city of Taif and Yanbu, but did not confirm the attack on Riyadh, nor did it confirm any casualties or property losses in Taif and Yanbu. Earlier the same day, Saree also released a video statement saying that the Houthis used dozens of ballistic missiles and drones to launch a large-scale attack on multiple military targets in the Jizan region in southwestern Saudi Arabia.
