Saudis Intercept Houthi Missiles

BBC: Yemen war: Saudis intercept Houthi missiles - defence ministry 

Saudi Arabia says it has intercepted three missiles and three drones fired by Houthi rebels in neighbouring Yemen. 

One was destroyed over the eastern city of Dammam, where falling shrapnel injured two children and damaged buildings, the defence ministry said. 

The Houthis - who frequently mount such cross-border attacks - said they had targeted Saudi oil facilities. 

The other attacks were aimed at oil sites in the southern provinces of Jizan and Najran, the group said. There are no immediate reports of impact on Saudi oil facilities.
