An airport in Saudi Arabia was targeted by Houthi forces on Tuesday, just hours after Riyadh offered the Yemen rebels a ceasefire.
The Houthis claimed a drone attack on a southern Saudi airport on Tuesday, although there was no comment from Riyadh authorities.
"Our operations will continue as long as the aggression and siege continue," Houthi military spokesman Yahya Sarea said in a Twitter post, according to Reuters. The Houthis on Monday dismissed the Saudi offer of a ceasefire as "nothing new".
Iran also poured cold water on this prospect of peace in Yemen, insisting Riyadh lift its blockade on the country before negotations are started.
