Al Jazeera: Yemen’s Houthis accused of firing missile at Mecca

Saudi Arabia says it intercepted ballistic missile heading towards Islam's holy city, sparking denial from Yemen rebels.

Yemen's Houthi rebels have been accused of targeting Saudi Arabia's holy city of Mecca by launching a long-range ballistic missile from 500km over the border.

The rebels and their ally Iran vehemently denied the allegation on Friday.
