Yemeni military attacks Houthis while Sanaa residents protest

Latest from the Middle East is news that flames and smoke

are seen near Saudi Arabia's Riyadh's airport.

Earlier, the Yemeni Armed Forces release videos claiming to have

targeted Houthis at various locations.

The footage purports to show the Yemeni government artillery units

destroying combat vehicles belonging to the Houthis.

It's been a week since Houthi rebels stormed down the Red Sea Coast

and made a chokehold threatening Saudi Arabia's oil exports.

Meanwhile in the rebel-run capital of Sanaa, thousands of residents

took to the streets to denounce Saudi Arabia's blockade of Yemen.

Protesters were armed with guns and daggers and said the

Saudis lied about attacks aimed at Mecca.
