The Houthis said they carried out an evening attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, with a ballistic missile intercepted and at least one person injured.

Saudi civil defence reported that a resident was injured and that there was limited damage to a home and a vehicle after the missile was intercepted. Houthi spokesman General Yayha Sari said the strike was “precise and direct”, though Saudi authorities rejected that account. The airport has been targeted on several occasions since the Yemen war reignited, with Saudi Arabia leading a coalition against the insurgents.

Al-Asbahi spoke at a press seminar on Wednesday in Rabat, amid the continuing “Fajr Yemen” operation, announced at the start of October to restore state institutions and drive back the Houthis. His remarks fit a diplomatic reading of Yemen’s landscape that links the political struggle to a rebellion against consensus over legitimate authority.
