This is the fifth such attack in four days.
A Saudi-led coalition fighting the Houthi group in Yemen said it destroyed two explosives fired into Saudi Arabia on Sunday afternoon in an attack by the Iran-aligned Houthis.
A spokesman for the coalition said the drones had been fired by the Houthis towards civilian targets in Khamis Mushait in southern Saudi Arabia, close to Abha.
A military spokesman for the Houthi group said two drones launched on Sunday afternoon by its forces had struck Saudi Arabia’s Abha airport.
This is the fifth such attack in four days, all of which the Houthis say struck an airfield or base in southern Saudi Arabia. On Wednesday Riyadh said an attack caused a fire in a civilian aircraft at Abha airport.
The Saudi-led military coalition intervened in Yemen in 2015, backing government forces fighting the Houthis.
