Saudi-led coalition launching brutal war on Yemen acknowledged on Thursday that a desalination plant in the southwestern Saudi province of Jizan was targeted.
Coalition spokesman Turki al-Maliki claimed a projectile struck near the plant in the Al-Shuqaiq area of Jizan late Wednesday, the official Saudi Press Agency reported.
He claimed no casualties or damage, adding that they were investigating the nature of the projectile.
Yemeni army announced late Wednesday they fired a cruise missile at a power station in Saudi Arabia’s al-Shuqaiq city, in the southern province of Jizan.
Following the announcement, the White House said on Thursday that President Donald Trump had been briefed about reports of a missile strike on Saudi Arabia, without offering details.
