The Houthi-run Saba news agency reported Saudi-led coalition air strikes on Sanaa, hitting the al-Mufazir gas facility and a state oil company building, Al Jazeera and Reuters said; the coalition did not immediately confirm the strikes. This follows the coalition’s account that it intercepted missiles fired towards Riyadh and the south, a day after a limited fire on the East-West oil pipeline.

The Saudi-led coalition fighting Yemen's Houthis said on Thursday that air defences intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile launched toward the Medina region, home to one of Islam's holiest cities.
