Houthis Claim Missile and Drone Strikes on Saudi Aramco Facility and Air Base Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree claimed the group launched ballistic missiles and drones at a Saudi Aramco facility in Yanbu and fired several ballistic missiles at the Khamis Mushait Air Base. Saudi Arabia has not confirmed that either target was successfully struck. The claims come after Saudi air defenses intercepted a Houthi drone south of Mecca before it entered the holy city's restricted airspace. Saudi Arabia condemned the incident as a terrorist attack, while Pakistan, Kuwait and other governments and organizations issued condemnations and expressed solidarity with the Kingdom. The Houthis deny that they attempted to target Mecca.
