The Houthis claimed a 'large-scale' missile and drone attack on King Khalid Air Base in Khamis Mushait, saying it answered more than 300 Saudi air strikes; the Saudi-led coalition said 13 civilians were hurt in Khamis Mushait, Abha and Taif, with seven homes and two vehicles damaged.

Why it matters

The strikes reached Taif, farther north than most recent attacks, as both sides escalated after the Houthi seizure of the coast.
