Saudi Arabian officials have confirmed they intercepted two Houthi missiles over the capital Riyadh on Sunday night.
Eyewitnesses heard six loud blasts and described bright flashes of light in the sky, as well as shrapnel raining over the diplomatic quarters where most embassies are located.
The attack was the first to target the capital since the Saudi-led coalition launched an offensive on June 12 to capture Yemen’s Hodeidah port city.
