A Saudi citizen and a Yemeni resident were killed as a result of a Houthi projectile that hit the southern Saudi city of Jazan on Friday, Saudi state media reported citing a coalition statement.

The attack also injured seven people, including six citizens and one Bangladeshi resident.

The Saudi-led coalition fighting the Iran-aligned Houthis in Yemen carried an attack later on Friday to address the Houthi “attack’s origins” and said it will follow that with a wider attack over Houthi military targets.
