Yemen rebels targeting missile at Mecca: Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia said the missile caused no damage and that it immediately targeted where it was launched in airstrikes.

A Saudi-led Arab coalition has been battling Shiite rebels in Yemen since March 2015. The rebels, known as Houthis, and their allies are known to have a stockpile of Soviet-era Scud missiles and locally designed variants.

Houthi media said it fired a missile last night targeting the nearby Jiddah airport.
