Saudi Arabia issued its first air raid alert in the capital since the escalation of regional tensions, marking a significant development in the ongoing conflict with Yemen's Houthi militants 1. The alert was triggered after Houthi forces claimed responsibility for launching drone and missile strikes against Riyadh 13. Saudi civil defense subsequently lifted danger alerts across multiple areas of the capital 1.
The Houthi attack resulted in visible damage at critical infrastructure in the city. Flames and smoke were spotted at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh 2, with reports indicating that a fuel depot near the airport caught fire 3. The militants claimed to have targeted sensitive facilities in both the capital and the port city of Yanbu using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and unmanned aircraft 45.
