Houthi missiles reach Riyadh after Saudi coalition strikes Sanaa fuel depot
Missiles and drones targeted Riyadh and Dammam on Tuesday night after the Saudi-led coalition struck the Yemen Petroleum Company's al-Sabaha fuel facility near Houthi-controlled Sanaa. Saudi coalition spokesperson Maj Gen Turki al-Maliki said the projectiles were intercepted. Shrapnel fell in a residential area in Dhahran, and a limited fire broke out at an Aramco administration building there.
The Houthis had warned they would target King Khalid International Airport and Aramco's Riyadh refinery, as well as Aramco's headquarters in Dammam. Thirteen people were killed when a missile struck the airport on Saturday; one more died in a follow-on attack the next day.
The Saudi cabinet, chaired by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, said the Houthi group would "bear the consequences" of its attacks on the kingdom. Fuel queues formed in Sanaa on Tuesday after the coalition announced the impending strike on al-Sabaha. The Houthi-run Yemen Petroleum Company said the facility held no petroleum stock and that supply to residents would continue normally.
