Houthis claim attack on Saudi command centre in Yemen

11 November 2026 23:03 GMT

Yemen’s Houthi military spokesperson, Yahya Saree, says the group hit a Saudi military command centre and operations room in the al-Buraiqa area of Yemen's Aden with several ballistic missiles on Wednesday.

In a post on Telegram, Saree said the facility was responsible for directing and overseeing Saudi military reinforcements across active fronts in Lahij, al-Dhale, Taiz and other governorates.

The Saudi-backed Yemeni government condemned the attack, saying it “reflects the militia’s established pattern of targeting civilians and terrorising innocent people,” Minister of Information Salem al-Awalqi said in a social media post.
