The Houthi movement that controls northern Yemen vowed on Monday to fire more missiles into Saudi Arabia unless it stops bombing the country, after missiles crashed into Riyadh overnight causing casualties in the Saudi capital for the first time.
The Saudi-led military coalition said Yemen's Houthis fired seven missiles into Saudi Arabia from Yemen, killing an Egyptian resident in Riyadh, state news agency SPA reported.
The Qatari-owned network Al Jazeera hosted a Houthi commander few minutes after seven Yemeni missiles were intercepted by Saudi forces.
Pakistan Monday strongly condemned the ballistic missile attacks on Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia's missile interceptors may have "failed catastrophically" in their attempt to shoot down several Yemeni missiles headed towards the capital of Riyadh.
Saudi Arabia and its military allies - armed by the USA and Britain - could stand guilty of war crimes, Amnesty International said on Friday.
The missile was reportedly fired by Houthi rebel fighters.
