Smoke seen rising near airport in Aden as Houthis say they attacked a military camp with a ballistic missile.
A powerful explosion has been heard in the city of Aden in southern Yemen, an Al Jazeera journalist and police official said.
A police official said on Wednesday that smoke was rising near the airport in Aden, which is controlled by the internationally recognised Yemeni government.
Reporting from Yemen’s Taiz, Al Jazeera’s Maha Ali said “the Houthi group targeted Aden airport with a ballistic missile”.
Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree said the group targeted the Saudi-led coalition’s “military operation room at the Badr Camp in Aden with a ballistic missile”.
He said that “the strike was precise and direct”.
