SANAA, Aug. 26 (Xinhua) -- Yemen's Houthi rebels said they launched multiple drone attacks on a vital military site in the Saudi capital Riyadh on Monday, the group's al-Masirah TV reported.
"We called on civilians to stay away from military sites because they become legitimate targets," the television said, citing a statement by the Houthi military spokesman Yahya Sarea as saying.
Sarea did not name the target.
There was no comment yet from Saudi Arabia on the alleged attack.
It was the fifth attack launched by Houthi rebels against Saudi Arabia in fewer than 24 hours, but most of the attacks were intercepted by Saudi air defence forces.
Saudi Arabia has been leading an Arab military coalition against Iran-allied Houthis in Yemen for more than five years in support of the exiled internationally-recognized government of Yemeni President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
