Houthis target military base at airport in Yemen's Al Mukalla: AFP

Yemen's Houthis on Wednesday targeted a military base at an airport in the southern city of Al Mukalla, which is controlled by Yemen's Saudi-backed government, two military officials told AFP.

"The Houthis used missiles and drones to target a military base housing forces from the Saudi-led coalition at Al Rayyan airport," said one of the officials, speaking on condition of anonymity.
