elchi reports that the Civil Defense Administration informed the public through a statement shared on the social media platform “X” (formerly Twitter), and warning messages were also sent to mobile phones.

Against the backdrop of recent escalations in conflicts between government forces and Houthis in Yemen, the Houthis, who are aligned with Iran and hold Saudi Arabia responsible for attacks against them, target the kingdom with ballistic missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles (drones).
Yemen has been in a civil war since September 2014, when Iran-backed Houthis seized the capital Sana’a and several other provinces.
Since March 2015, an Arab coalition led by Saudi Arabia has been supporting Yemen’s internationally recognized government.
