The Houthi group claims it has attacked Saudi Arabia’s East-West crude oil pumping stations and Riyadh airport, but there is no immediate Saudi confirmation, reports Reuters.

The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen said earlier it had destroyed two ballistic missile launchers in the capital Sanaa, including one used to fire a missile towards Riyadh that the coalition said it had intercepted.
