Three Potential Targets North of Riyadh for the New Yemeni Attack

On Sunday, Yemen renewed its operations in the Saudi capital.

Exclusive — Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni:

Video clips circulated by activists showed a dense rise of smoke columns following massive explosions that shook the city.

The explosions occurred, according to Saudi platforms, north of Riyadh.

The area includes 3 strategic Saudi bases, most notably Base 566 belonging to the Royal Strategic Missiles, which is affiliated with the Missile Force responsible for the missile deterrence systems.

The area also includes the Air Defense Command Center, which is responsible for managing and securing the airspace, in addition to controlling the defense and early warning system.

Also located in the area is King Salman Base, which is a central command and control center.

It hasn’t yet become clear which of those targets was hit by the bombardment, as the area is heavily fortified and the footage was taken from a considerable distance away from it, but the disruption of the early warning system in Riyadh suggests that the Yemeni forces may have struck its center.
