Saudi-led coalition said on the 3rd that Houthi claims of an attack on Riyadh
were "misleading." Coalition spokesman Turki al-Maliki said losses the Houthis
suffered in Taiz province and other fronts have prompted them to seek a "false
victory" to divert attention. Earlier on the 3rd the Houthis said they used
ballistic missiles and drones to strike an ARAMCO oil facility in Riyadh,
achieving their objectives and "directly hitting" the target and causing a fire.
The Houthis framed the strike as retaliation for Saudi strikes on Sanaa and
other Houthi-held areas.
