Houthi projectile injures two and damages mosque in Saudi Jazan region
The Houthi movement announced that a recent strike was aimed at a Saudi Arabian military installation in the border town of Sharurah, located in the kingdom’s southern Najran region. The group’s statement, released through its official channels, said the operation was intended to hit a Saudi base that it described as a “key logistical hub” supporting operations against Houthi forces in Yemen.
The claim follows a series of cross‑border attacks by the Houthis that have targeted Saudi infrastructure and military sites since the conflict escalated in 2015. Sharurah, situated near the Saudi‑Yemeni frontier, has previously been the focus of security alerts due to its proximity to the war zone. Saudi authorities have not yet confirmed the extent of any damage or casualties resulting from the alleged attack. The incident underscores the ongoing volatility along the border and the potential for further escalations in the region.
