Saudi-led coalition intercepts two missiles fired towards Jizan

Houthis claim to firing four missiles at a Saudi Aramco refinery

DUBAI: The Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen said on Tuesday it had destroyed two ballistic missiles fired at the southern Saudi city of Jizan by the Iranian-aligned Houthis.

The Houthis said separately in a tweet by their al-Masirah
TV that they fired four missiles at a Saudi Aramco refinery and
petrochemical facilities in Jizan Economic City.



A coalition statement carried by Saudi state news agency SPA
said there were no casualties. The Iran-aligned Houthis, who control Yemen's capital Sanaa, have fired dozens of missiles into the kingdom in recent months, part of a three-year-old conflict widely seen as a proxy battle between regional rivals Saudi Arabia and Iran. Most of the missiles have been intercepted by the Saudi military.
