The internationally recognized government forces say they have carried out attacks on “legitimate important military targets” in the Houthi-controlled capital, Al Jazeera reports.

The Iran-backed Houthi movement says Saudi forces have carried out airstrikes in the area, according to the media channel Al-Masirah TV, which has links to the Yemeni movement.

In Sanaa, an AFP correspondent heard at least five explosions in different areas, while another reporter saw two fighter jets firing missiles at the capital.

A fragile ceasefire between the Houthi movement and Yemen's internationally recognized government, which is militarily supported by Saudi Arabia, collapsed in July. The country's civil war has been going on for more than a decade.
