Missiles hit Yemen’s Aden International Airport on Wednesday, just hours after the Iran-backed Houthi rebels warned people to evacuate the area.
Yemen’s Transport Ministry said the Houthi missiles struck the airport twice, bringing the number of attacks on the facility up to six over the past month.
It’s unclear if there were any casualties or if there was extensive damage at the facility.

Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree said a Saudi Arabian cargo plane was the target of the bombing.
Earlier reporting from the region, citing witnesses, said at least one missile struck the nearby Al-Nasr Camp, which hosts Yemen’s Interior Ministry and the country’s coast guard.
