The confirmation follows reports by Houthi-controlled media of attacks this afternoon. Turki al-Maliki, a spokesman for the coalition, wrote in a post on X that the targets in Sanaa and two other provinces were used by the Houthi movement to "support the war."
The attacks were preceded by both sides issuing sharp threats against each other during the day. The Houthi movement warned that an attack on Sanaa would be met "with force."
The Iran-backed movement has also warned civilians, employees of Saudi oil producer Saudi Aramco at facilities across Saudi Arabia, and employees of Saudi airlines. The warning is similar to one issued on Monday, after attacks were reported on a military base in southern Saudi Arabia and King Khalid Airport outside Riyadh.
Saudi authorities issued a warning to residents on Tuesday evening about "an airborne threat," but announced shortly afterward that the danger had passed.
US President Donald Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform that the Houthi movement was trying to drive up fuel prices ahead of the upcoming US midterm elections and warned that he would "never forget" the attacks on Saudi Arabia.
"The Houthis are behaving very badly," Trump wrote on Tuesday evening, suggesting that US attacks could come after the election in early November.
This weekend, after the deadly attack on King Khalid Airport, Trump opened the door to the United States attacking the Houthi movement, as Saudi Arabia has wanted.
