The official spokesperson for the Coalition forces (the Coalition supporting legitimacy in Yemen), Turki Al-Maliki, stated on Thursday that the Houthi militias attempted to target dozens of airports, oil facilities, and ports in Saudi Arabia, noting that Houthi attacks pose a threat to regional and international security and stability, and represent an extension of a hostile agenda that targeted the holiest places on Earth.
This came during a press conference regarding the terrorist attack on King Khalid International Airport and the distinctive operation carried out by the Coalition to neutralize vital capabilities used by the terrorist Houthi militias to support their war effort.
He announced that 17 people were killed and more than 330 injured as a result of the heinous attacks on King Khalid Airport, saying, “We extend our condolences to those who lost their lives in the terrorist attack on King Khalid Airport in Riyadh.”
He noted that 1,104 missiles and 1,135 drones had been launched at the Kingdom since the start of operations.
He stated that the Houthis acquired advanced technologies with the assistance of regional parties, and that the Houthi militias are using civilian assets and Yemen’s resources to fuel their war effort. They have built mountain storage facilities in Sana’a, Saada, and Amran as launch points for attacks, and “we worked to degrade Houthi capabilities by destroying these mountain storage sites.”
He called on the Houthis to immediately halt all terrorist operations targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure.
He revealed that the Coalition had destroyed 127 storage sites in mountainous areas and numerous launch platforms over the past few days.
