Two loud blasts were heard in Saudi capital Riyadh this morning (Oct 25, local time); residents in central neighborhoods reported windows vibrating.

Russian Defence Ministry said Russian air-defence systems intercepted and destroyed 616 Ukrainian drones overnight.

Houthi forces said they carried out seven special operations using ballistic missiles and drones that struck multiple targets inside Saudi Arabia, including an ARAMCO facility in Yanbu, the Rabigh refinery, an oil pumping station and the East‑West crude pipeline. They also said they hit King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, King Fahd International Airport in Dammam—causing aviation disruption—Najran airport and Khamis Mushait air base, and described the strikes as precise and successful. The group said the actions were in response to Saudi air and missile strikes, which it claimed have totalled 3,123 since the current escalation, and vowed to continue operations until the blockade on Yemen ends.
