Saudi Arabia said it intercepted two ballistic missiles aimed at Riyadh on Sunday, as officials reported debris damage to an Aramco building in the capital's financial district.
The interceptions were reported on November 8. Separately, the Houthi-run health ministry said airstrikes near Yemen's capital, Sanaa, killed at least 33 people and wounded 39 on November 7. It attributed the strikes to Saudi Arabia, which said it was investigating the reported deaths.
The fighting is developing. Reuters could not independently verify the casualty account, and the missiles' origin, their connection to the reported airstrikes and the source of the debris that hit the Aramco building have not been independently established.
The immediate stakes extend from homes outside Sanaa to a business district in the Saudi capital. Renewed fighting has already broken the UN-brokered truce reached in 2022, which had largely halted attacks between the Saudi-led coalition and the Houthis, according to Reuters.
"The strikes keep coming. Just as rescuers arrive, another strike hits. We have even lost some of our own medical responders, who have been martyred," Abdul-Aziz al-Dailami, director of Sehatuna Hospital in Sanaa, told Reuters.
