SANAA, May 19 (Xinhua) -- Yemen's Houthi rebels on Sunday said last week's drone attacks on Saudi oil facilities were the beginning of military operations against 300 targets in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Houthi-controlled Saba news agency reported.
"The targets included military headquarters, camps and vital installations inside Saudi Arabia, UAE and their military bases in Yemen," Saba quoted a Houthi military source as saying.
"We will halt all our military operations once the aggression (Saudi-led coalition) halts its operations," the source added, cited by Saba.
On Tuesday, the Houthi rebels launched armed drone attacks against two Saudi oil pump stations, causing limited fire and damage, according to the Saudi-owned Al Arabiya television.
The Saudi-led coalition has been intervening in the civil war in Yemen since 2015 to fight the Iran-allied Houthi rebels who seized Yemen's northern provinces, including the capital Sanaa.
