Houthi Forces in Yemen Claim to Have Launched 4 Strikes Against Targets in Saudi Arabia and Yemen
Xinhua News Agency, Kuwait City, November 8 (Reporter Yin Zhao) - Sana'a reports: The Houthi armed group claimed on the 8th that it had launched four strikes against targets in Saudi Arabia and within Yemen.
The military spokesperson for the Houthis, Yahya Saree, stated through the group's controlled Masirah TV that the Houthis "conducted four special military operations using multiple ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and several drones," targeting facilities such as King Khalid International Airport in the Saudi capital Riyadh, a financial center, oil storage tanks of Saudi Aramco, and a gathering place for Saudi troops within Yemen.
Saree indicated that these actions were a response to Saudi airstrikes on a residential area in Sana'a province and a market in Taiz province. The Houthis will continue to strike relevant targets in Saudi Arabia and Yemen until Saudi Arabia halts its "aggression" and lifts the "blockade" on Houthi-controlled areas.
Recently, the intensity of mutual strikes between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis has increased. Meanwhile, clashes between the Houthis and the Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces have also intensified on multiple fronts.
Houthi forces conducted four strikes on November 8, 2023, targeting locations in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, including King Khalid International Airport and oil facilities. This action was a response to recent Saudi airstrikes on Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen. The Houthi military spokesperson declared that operations would continue until Saudi Arabia ends its aggression and blockade.
