Yemen's Houthi group has claimed a ballistic missile strike on King Khalid International Airport in the Saudi capital Riyadh, just a day after claiming responsibility for another strike on Abha International Airport. Saudi authorities said on Wednesday that three people were killed in the two strikes. The Saudi-led coalition fighting the Houthi movement said in a statement that its forces intercepted and destroyed two ballistic missiles launched by the Houthis toward Riyadh and another missile targeting Khamis Mushait in south-western Saudi Arabia.
