The Yemeni army fired a ballistic missile at the kingdom's southern Najran region in retaliation for the deadly military campaign on the impoverished state on Friday.
Iran's Arabic-language Al-Alam news network reported Yemeni soldiers and Popular Committee fighters had targeted a new Saudi military base in Najran with a Badr 1-type missile.
Additionally, Yemen’s al-Masirah television network reported a Saudi airstrike on the Hamadan district in Sana'a Province.
Saudi Arabia and its allies launched a brutal war, code-named Operation Decisive Storm, against Yemen in March 2015 in an attempt to reinstall former Yemeni President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh, and crush the Houthi Ansarullah movement.
The offensive initially consisted of a bombing campaign, but was later coupled with a naval blockade and the deployment of ground forces into Yemen.
The imposed war, however, has so far failed to achieve its goals, thanks to stiff resistance from Yemeni troops and allied Houthi fighters.
Several Western countries have been supplying Saudi Arabia with advanced weapons and military equipment.
