A few days ago, the rebels had said that they had hit an "important target" in the capital, Riyadh, using a ballistic missile and drones.
Houthi spokesman Yahya Sarea said that “an associated military operation” between the air force and missile force was executed through a “Zulfiqar” ballistic missile and four “Samad 3” drones, without revealing details on the “important target”.
