Saudi forces intercept missile 'fired by Yemen rebels'
State-run Al-Ekhbariya television gave no further details but did not report any casualties or damage from the missile.
Yemen's Saba news agency, run by the Iran-backed Houthis, said the missile had been fired at a Saudi National Guard base in Najran, just over the border from Yemen where a Saudi-led coalition has intervened against them.
Saba said the attack had caused deaths among Saudi forces but provided no details.
The coalition on Thursday said it intercepted another missile fired by the Houthis at the southern city of Jazan.
The UN Security Council this week condemned "in the strongest possible terms" multiple missile attacks launched by the Houthis on Saudi territory, saying they posed a threat to regional security.
In one of the biggest such attacks yet, Saudi forces last weekend said they intercepted seven missiles fired by rebels toward cities including Riyadh, killing one person.
In March 2015, a Saudi-led coalition launched a military campaign to help the internationally recognised government regain control of territory lost to the Houthi rebels. Figures suggest more than 10,000 people, half of which civilians, have died since this intervention, while at least three million more have been forced into displacement.
