2026年9月18日深夜至19日凌晨,利雅得全城响起防空警报声,这是自也门胡塞武装升级对沙特的袭击以来,沙特首都首次进入此类警戒状态。沙特民防部门发布了覆盖多个地区的警报,居民表示在警报响起后听到了爆炸声。
沙特官方表示,警报随后已解除,局势已得到控制,未有人员伤亡或财产损失报告。此次警报是在胡塞武装针对沙特领土的导弹和无人机袭击近期全面升级的背景下发出的,此前几周该国其他地区的石油设施和军事设施也曾遭到袭击。
联合国安理会警告称,胡塞武装与沙特之间不断升级的交火有可能使冲突进一步扩大至整个地区。此次针对利雅得的警报凸显了胡塞武装打击范围的扩大——此前其袭击主要集中在沙特边境地区和航运通道,如今已转向该国内陆和首都。
