Brigadier General Yahya Sarei stated a Qasef-2K was used in the attack, adding that the raid was accurate, legitimate and a natural response to the Saudi war and siege of Yemen, Yemeni News reported.
On Wednesday, Al-Jazeera news channel reported that a senior commander of the Saudi-led coalition had been killed in Yemen. Major General Mohammad Al-Harmali died in clashes with Yemeni Army soldiers and allied fighters from Popular Committees in the Central province of Ma’rib, according to the report.

Sarei announced late on Tuesday that army troops and allied fighters from Popular Committees had hit sensitive targets in King Khalid airbase, South of the Saudi capital Riyadh.
