while the Iran-backed group claimed a new attack on Riyadh's international airport. The coalition's operation came a day after explosions rattled Saudi Arabia's capital and authorities sent text messages to residents warning them of a "hostile aerial threat" to the city, which has been heavily targeted by the Houthis in recent weeks. The Saudi-led military coalition's spokesman Turki al-Maliki posted on X on Monday that the operation had destroyed four ballistic missile launchers, as well as a missile depot and tunnels used by the Houthis, who control a large part of Yemen. The operation "focused on cutting off Houthi militia supply lines between areas under their control," he added. The group have carried out waves of strikes on the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, including an attack this month that killed 13 people and wounded more than 300, the deadliest in the kingdom in more than a decade. "Air defences intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile launched by the terrorist Houthi militia toward Riyadh," al-Maliki also said on Monday. The airport re-opened and fights resumed on Sunday with the Houthis warning travellers to avoid the facility, calling it a "military target." On Monday, the Houthis said once again they had attacked the airport "with a ballistic missile, striking the target with precision", according to a post by Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree on social media. He said the Houthis had also struck oil pumping stations with drones. On Sunday, the Houthis had said they launched an attack on the airport in Riyadh, after the kingdom announced flights were resuming. The airport closure had been a major blow for Saudi Arabia, forcing the postponement of the kingdom's flagship investment conference until 2027 and disrupting travel plans for thousands of passengers.
