Riyadh explosions heard by AFP journalists

Several explosions echoed across Riyadh on Thursday, AFP journalists in the Saudi capital heard, during the war between Saudi Arabia and Houthi fighters in Yemen.

The cause of the explosions was not established in the supplied information.

The Iran-backed Houthis have claimed repeated attacks targeting Riyadh airport in recent days, along with salvos aimed at critical infrastructure and military sites elsewhere in Saudi Arabia.
