The Houthis announced this morning, Sunday, the launch of two drones to target the airfields of warplanes at two airports in southern Saudi Arabia, while Reuters quoted Saudi media outlets that the air defenses of the coalition intercepted a drone launched by the Houthis.
The Houthi military spokesman, Yahya Saree, confirmed in a tweet on Twitter that two drones had targeted the landfills of Saudi warplanes at Jizan Airport and King Khalid Air Base in Khamis Mushait.
