Loud explosions have been heard in the north of the Saudi capital Riyadh, an AFP journalist and residents say, as Saudi forces and their Yemeni government allies ramp up their fight against the Houthis.
The AFP journalist reports hearing a “powerful explosion”, as do residents living in the area, which is not far from the King Khalid International Airport.
One local says “the windows in my house shook” as a result of a blast.
