On Tuesday, the Saudi-led coalition said that it had intercepted and destroyed seven ballistic missiles, fired at Saudi Arabia from Yemen, with three of them targeting Riyadh. According to media reports, one civilian was killed and two were injured.
Yemen has been engulfed in a violent conflict between the government headed by Yemeni President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi and the Houthi movement, also known as Ansar Allah. Since March 2015, the Saudi-led coalition of mostly Persian Gulf countries has been carrying out airstrikes against the Houthis at Hadi's request. Millions of Yemenis remain in need of immediate humanitarian aid, according to the United Nations.
