Yemen's Houthi Forces Claim Attacks on Saudi King Khalid International Airport and Other Targets
On the 10th local time, the Houthi armed group in Yemen claimed to have once again attacked targets including Saudi Arabia's King Khalid International Airport, financial centers, oil facilities, and military assembly points.
On the same evening, the Houthi armed group issued a statement saying, they launched four rounds of attacks against Saudi Arabia using multiple ballistic missiles and drones. The Houthis stated that the first round of actions targeted the King Khalid International Airport and several pump stations along the east-west oil pipeline located in Riyadh, with the targets being directly hit, causing fires and damage. The second round of actions struck facilities of Saudi Aramco located in Buqayq. The third round targeted a military assembly point in Yemen's Al-Jawf province led by Saudi officers, resulting in numerous casualties. The fourth round targeted the financial center in Saudi Arabia's capital, Riyadh.
The Houthis also warned investors and businesses to withdraw their investments in Saudi Arabia through the statement and suggested relocating investments to peaceful and secure countries. The statement simultaneously denied Saudi claims regarding the Houthi attack on the east-west oil pipeline located in Medina, stating that their actions targeted the east-west oil pipeline in Riyadh, not the pipeline in Medina.
The statement declared that the Houthi armed group would continue to launch military operations against targets within Saudi Arabia and insisted on countering the blockade with a blockade, escalating in response to escalation, while targeting Saudi military assembly points until Saudi Arabia ceases its military operations against Yemen and lifts the blockade.
