SANAA, Yemen, Aug 8 (NNN-SABA) – Yemen’s Houthi rebels said, they launched a ballistic missile towards a Saudi military school in Saudi Arabia’s south-western province of Jizan, the Houthi-run Masirah TV reported.
This is the second missile attack against Saudi Arabia in the past few hours.
“The missile hit gatherings of Saudi troops, in the military training school, in Mosim area, in Jizan, killing dozens,” Houthi military spokesman, Yahya Sarea, was quoted as saying in a statement.
“The operation came, after accurate intelligence in real-time,” he added.
The attack came a few hours after another Houthi-claimed ballistic missile struck at a border military camp, in neighbouring Saudi province of Najran.
Both alleged missile attacks were not confirmed yet by Saudi Arabia.
The Houthis have recently stepped up missile and drone attacks on Saudi Arabia, but most of the missiles and drones had been intercepted by the kingdom’s air defences.
The rebels have been demanding the lifting of air and sea blockades, on the territories they control, including the capital, Sanaa.– NNN-SABA
