The alleged attack comes a few weeks after Houthi rebels claimed drone attacks against two Saudi oil facilities on September 14.
The Houthi rebels also threatened to widen attacks against Saudi Arabia.
Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree said after the attacks that the rebels “warn the Saudis that our targets will keep expanding.”
The same spokesman added, “ We have the right to strike back in retaliation to the airstrikes and the targeting of our civilians for the last five years.”
Several Arab countries condemned the attacks, including Morocco.
