The Saudi Arabia-led coalition launched airstrikes on Houthi rebels’ targets in the Yemeni capital Sanaa early Sunday, local media said.
According to Houthi rebel-run Al-Masirah TV, the airstrikes targeted “al-Daylami air base and Maintenance military camp north of Sanaa, as well as a site west of the capital.”
No casualties were reported.
The airstrikes came hours after Saudi Arabia said it intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile and a bomb-laden drone over the sky of Abha city in the southwest of the kingdom.
The Houthis on late Saturday claimed responsibility for the attack on Abha.
In recent weeks, Saudi Arabia had witnessed more drone and missile attacks attempted by the Houthis.
Last week, Houthi drone attacks wounded 26 people at Abha airport. The rebels’ drone attacks last month also damaged two oil pump stations of Saudi Aramco, the Saudi Arabian Oil Company, according to local media.
Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have led a coalition against Houthis for years in support of Yemen’s internationally recognized President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
