দাবি হুতিদের সৌদির প্রতিরক্ষা মন্ত্রণালয়ে ব্যালিস্টিক ক্ষেপণাস্ত্র হামলা

Yemen's Houthi rebels claimed on Tuesday, 27 October, to have fired a ballistic missile at Saudi Arabia's defence ministry in Riyadh and said it hit directly, according to military spokesman Yahya Saree. Saudi authorities said they intercepted two Houthi ballistic missiles and destroyed three more aimed at the eastern region. The Houthis also claimed a strike on the Ras Tanura refinery, which could not be verified. Witnesses told AP that at least four explosions were heard over Riyadh; it was unclear whether they came from strikes or interceptions. Saudi Arabia did not immediately comment on the claims. The coalition spokesperson said four drones and three missiles were intercepted, without evidence. Last week the Houthis claimed attacks on Aramco facilities in Yanbu and on Dammam airport, where two people were reportedly killed. Hindustan Times reported that the attacks follow a sharpening conflict since September.

Where accounts differ. Manab Zamin reports that Saudi Arabia said it intercepted two missiles earlier that day and does not report the coalition's drone and missile claims, while Hindustan Times reports the coalition's four drones and three missiles and the Dammam deaths, which Manab Zamin omits.
