Saudi-led coalition says it intercepted three Houthi ballistic missiles

The Saudi-led coalition reports that it intercepted three ballistic missiles launched by Yemen's Houthi group.

The group has also made its own statement. A Houthi military spokesman claims the Yemeni movement fired one ballistic missile towards the airport in the Saudi capital, Riyadh.

What is known

The available reporting contains two different claims. The coalition speaks of three intercepted missiles, while the Houthi spokesman mentions a single missile aimed at Riyadh's airport. The source does not clarify whether these refer to the same attack.

The available text also does not say where the missiles were intercepted, whether there were casualties or damage, or how the airport was affected. None of these points has been confirmed.

The brief report indicates that confrontation between the Houthis and the Saudi-led coalition continues. More detail and independent confirmation are not yet available.
