SAUDI ARABIA reported one death from missiles fired across the border by Yemen’s Houthi movement on the third anniversary of the Gulf kingdom’s war against its southern neighbour.

Two others were wounded by fragments from the missile, among several shot down over Riyadh by air defence systems.

The victims were reportedly Egyptian nationals. Reports identified the type of missile fired as a Burkan, which arms experts say shares characteristics of the Iranian-built Qiam ballistic missiles.
