Othe warnings, which concerned the city of Abha and the region near Khamis Mushait, were quickly lifted, said Saudi Civil Defense.
Previously, the Huthis had announced that they were the target of Saudi attacks in northern Yemen on the border with Saudi Arabia.
Today, the television channel Almasirah, affiliated with the Huthis, reported two air raids and artillery fire in three districts of the Yemeni province of Saada, bordering Saudi Arabia and rebel stronghold.
“Saudi aviation carried out two attacks against the districts of Sahar and Baqim,” said the media agency that had just before reported “fired artillery” in the border district of Monabbih.
In recent days, the Huthis have advanced along the western coast of Yemen, controlling Moka and extending the offensive towards Dhubab.
