SANAA, Aug. 7 (Xinhua) -- Yemen's Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for firing a ballistic missile on Wednesday toward a Saudi border military camp in the kingdom's southwestern region of Najran, the group's al-Masirah TV reported.
"The missile hit the camp in Rajla area in Najran, killing dozens of Saudi troops," Houthi military spokesman Yahya Sarea was quoted as saying.
There was no confirmation from Saudi Arabia on the alleged attack.
Houthis have recently stepped up missile and drone attacks on Saudi Arabia, but most of the missiles and drones were intercepted by the kingdom's air forces.
Saudi Arabia has been leading an Arab military coalition against Iran-allied Houthis in Yemen for more than four years in support of the exiled internationally-recognized government of Yemeni President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
