The Houthi military spokesman claimed responsibility for two overnight attacks against Saudi Arabia, specifying that the operations targeted 'sensitive targets' at Aramco facilities in Jizan and Yanbu using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones, according to the Houthi-affiliated Abu Ali Express. The claims have not been independently verified.
The Houthi military spokesman claimed responsibility for two overnight attacks against Saudi Arabia, targeting what he described as 'sensitive targets' at Aramco facilities in Jizan and Yanbu. The spokesman said the operations involved dozens of ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and unmanned aerial vehicles.
The claim follows a broader Houthi statement earlier Saturday afternoon asserting a wave of strikes against Saudi Arabia, as The Zioneer reported at 15:05. The new statement provides specific target locations and weapon systems, adding detail to the earlier claim.
The Houthis have repeatedly targeted Saudi energy infrastructure and airspace in recent weeks, drawing responses from Saudi and US air defense systems. The movement frames the attacks as retaliation for the Saudi-American blockade on Sanaa International Airport.
The claims have not been independently verified, and no confirmation of impacts, interceptions, or casualties has been reported by Saudi authorities or other sources.
