DOHA, November 15. /TASS/. The Houthis from the Yemeni rebel movement Ansar Allah say they have struck Riyadh’s international airport and financial center.

"Our armed forces (Houthi units - TASS) struck King Khalid International Airport and the financial center in the Saudi enemy’s capital city of Riyadh with two ballistic missiles," Houthi spokesman Yahya Saris wrote on his Telegram channel.

Apart from that, according to Saria, sic Houthi missiles struck Saudi forces’ positions in the Lahij governorate in southern Yemen, killing and wounding dozens of soldiers.

The armed confrontation between government forces and Houthi rebels has been continuing in Yemen since August 2014. The situation deteriorated dramatically this summer. In early August 2026, Ansar Allah launched an offensive in the country's southwest and took control of the port city of Mokha and territories along the Bab al-Mandeb Strait in western Yemen on September 10-11. On October 4, the Yemeni government forces announced the launch of a large-scale operation to liberate the Houthi-controlled territories from the rebels.
