2026年9月18日深夜から19日未明にかけて、リヤド全域で空襲警報のサイレンが鳴り響いた。イエメンのフーシ派がサウジアラビアへの攻撃を激化させて以来、サウジの首都がこうした警報下に置かれたのは初めてのことだ。サウジアラビアの民間防衛当局は複数の地域を対象に警報を発令し、住民は警報後に爆発音を聞いたと証言している。
サウジ当局は警報がその後解除され、状況は沈静化したとし、死傷者や被害の報告はないとした。今回の警報は、サウジ領内を標的としたフーシ派のミサイルおよびドローン攻撃が全般的に激化する中で発令された。ここ数週間には王国内の他の地域で石油インフラや軍事施設を狙った攻撃も起きている。
国連安全保障理事会は、フーシ派とサウジアラビアの間で激化する応酬が地域全体で紛争を拡大させる危険があると警告した。リヤドへの警報は、これまでサウジの国境地帯や海上輸送路に集中していたフーシ派の攻撃が、王国の内陸部や首都へと拡大しつつあることを浮き彫りにしている。
