Multiple missiles have struck the airport in Aden, a major city in Yemen. The attacks happened while the country is caught in a long-running conflict between government forces and Houthi rebels.
Along with the airport attack, the Houthi group also fired missiles at a government palace in the city. Reports confirm that the Prime Minister and other government officials were in the city when the attacks happened, but they were not harmed.
In a separate move, the Saudi-led coalition—which supports the Yemeni government—said they stopped another missile that was headed toward the Saudi city of Yanbu.
The Houthi group is based in Yemen and has ties to Iran. They have been targeting government locations and infrastructure in the region for some time. The situation remains tense as the coalition continues to respond to these threats.
