Saudi-led coalition says it destroyed Houthi ballistic missile fired towards kingdom
Saudi Arabia's Civil Defense issued two alerts warning of potential danger in Najran, in southwestern Saudi Arabia, and in the Eastern Province.
The Saudi-led coalition reported on Thursday that it destroyed a Houthi ballistic missile fired toward Saudi Arabia's eastern region. Prior to the coalition's announcement, the Saudi civil defence issued two alerts warning of potential danger in the Eastern Province and Najran, though these were retracted minutes later.
According to Gulf News, two ballistic missiles targeted Aden airport on Wednesday, October 28. The strike, which occurred after the Houthis called for the facility's evacuation, resulted in material damage and civilian injuries, according to Yemen’s military spokesperson and Transport Ministry. Air traffic at the airport was halted following the incident.
Ajel English reported that Yemeni armed forces carried out 749 precision strikes over a 24-hour period, claiming to have killed 239 Houthi fighters and destroyed 117 vehicles.
