Saudi jets attack Intl. airport, airbase in Yemen capital cityTEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Saudi warplanes have launched seven airstrikes against the Sana’a International airport and al-Dailami air base in Yemen’s capital city as the regime pushes ahead with its aggression against its neighbor.

Saudi sources said their airstrike on Wednesday night targeted a drone hanger at the Sana’a airport.

Saudi Arabia had attacked Sana’a airport last November, damaging its ground navigation tower and parts of its runway.

 The attack came after Riyadh announced that it was tightening the siege on Yemen’s air, sea, and land borders, after Yemeni forces, backed by Houthi Ansarullah fighters, launched a missile, a Borkan H2 long-range missile, at King Khalid International Airport in northeastern Riyadh.

Earlier on Wednesday, the Yemeni army’s remote control drones carried out an airstrike on the Abha International Airport in Saudi Arabia’s southwestern Asir region, causing the airport to cancel its flights.

Yemeni drones also attacked an Aramco facility in the nearby Jizan region.
