Saudi-led coalition renews airstrikes against Yemen's Houthis
Riyadh-led airstrikes came after Yemen's Houthis launched a projectile into the southern Saudi province of Jizan, killing two people late last week.
The Saudi Arabia-led military coalition fighting Yemen’s Houthi rebels said it launched renewed airstrikes in response to a projectile attack that killed two people near the southern Saudi Jizan province on Friday.
The coalition said it launched a “large-scale military operation” against the Houthis, including some 40 strikes against rebel targets in Yemen’s north, Saudi Arabia’s Al-Ekhbariya TV reported on Saturday.
The Riyadh-led coalition also launched strikes on what it said was a Houthi military camp in the rebel-held Yemeni capital, Sanaa, on Saturday.
“The operation in Sanaa was an immediate response to an attempt to transfer weapons from al-Tashrifat camp in Sanaa,” the state-run Saudi Press Agency said.
