Houthi attacks on two Saudi airports kill three as Iran-backed rebels also fire on Yemen’s Aden airport
Saudi Arabia’s civil aviation authority said three people were killed in attacks Tuesday and Wednesday on Abha International Airport and Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport, after Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis claimed to have fired a ballistic missile at the Riyadh airport, AFP reported. Yemen’s government said Houthi missiles and drones also targeted Aden’s airport, with one missile landing near the runway minutes before a flight from Cairo was due, forcing it to divert to Jeddah. The Saudi-led coalition said it intercepted and destroyed a Houthi ballistic missile north of Riyadh, AP reported.
