Houthis fire missiles at Saudi Arabia after strikes on Sanaa airport
Yemen's Houthis said they launched missiles and drones at Saudi Arabia's Abha airport after strikes on Sanaa airport that they blamed on the kingdom. Saudi-led coalition air defences said they intercepted the missiles and reported no casualties. The Yemeni government said it targeted Sanaa's runway to stop an Iranian aircraft from landing, while the UN urged all sides to return to negotiations.
