Several explosions rang out early on Tuesday in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, according to AFP journalists, as Houthi attacks, from the pro-Iranian movement in Yemen, multiply against the kingdom.
Residents received an alert message on their mobile phones telling them to take shelter due to an 'air threat'. A second message from the Saudi Civil Defence then announced that the alert had been lifted. On 8 November, a Houthi attack had already targeted Riyadh and damaged a tower of the state-owned oil group Aramco.
