Yemeni Armed Forces Spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree on Thursday warned workers at Saudi oil facilities, against being present at sites considered targets by the Yemeni forces.

“Yemeni Armed Forces warn employees, including experts, engineers, and workers at Saudi oil facilities, against being present at sites considered targets by the Yemeni Armed Forces, urging them to avoid endangering their lives,” the Yemeni military spokesman said in a statement.

He said the warning applies to facilities previously targeted as well as other sites, and renewed earlier warnings to aviation companies operating at designated fields and airports, as well as travelers and workers at those locations.

Earlier Thursday, Brig, Gen. Saree said the Yemeni Armed Forces had targeted King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh with a ballistic missile, adding it accurately struck its target and disrupted airport operations.

He also issued a “final warning to international airlines against continuing to operate flights through Saudi airspace,” saying it had become a theater of Yemeni military operations, while excluding the airspace over the holy cities of Mecca and Medina.
