The Saudi-led coalition said that it intercepted missiles fired by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi terrorists on Tuesday towards Aramco's headquarters in Dhahran.

The announcement came after loud booms were heard in the area, six sources told Reuters on Tuesday, with the coalition saying that missile fragments fell in a nearby residential area.

This is a developing story.
