A boy rides a bicycle past an outdoor exhibition displays portraits of slain Houthi fighters during the Martyr Week, in Sana'a, Yemen, 29 October 2026. The Houthis commemorate their annual Martyr Week by adorning cemeteries and public spaces with portraits of war-slain fighters, models of weapons, and political banners. EPA/YAHYA ARHABHouthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree dismissed the coalition's account as false in a post on X, saying the group had not carried out any operation towards Saudi territory. He said its operations target Saudi oil facilities and military bases.
The Iran-aligned Houthis have launched a series of cross-border attacks against Saudi Arabia targeting military installations, airports and energy infrastructure.
The group has repeatedly denied targeting Mecca and Medina, Islam's two holiest cities, rejecting previous Saudi-led coalition accusations that it had launched drones towards the cities.
