The spokesman of the Yemeni army said this attack came in response to the continued escalation of airstrikes by Saudi Arabia and its tighter restrictions on fuel imports.
He vowed larger attacks if the war is not stopped.
Saudi Arabia and its regional allies launched a deadly war against Yemen in March 2015.
The Saudi war has killed tens of thousands of civilians most of them women and children and brought about the world's worst humanitarian crisis according to the United Nations.
Experts say the Yemeni army's retaliatory attacks send this clear message to Saudi Arabia and its allies that the more attacks against Yemeni civilians and tighter blockade, the more painful attacks against Saudi facilities.
