The Houthi militias shelled the United Nation office in southern Saudi Arabia near the border with Yemen, Al Arabiya local news reported on Monday.
The shells damaged the front windows, walls and reception of the building, it said.
It is the first time that an international body in Saudi Arabia was targeted since the Saudi-led coalition declared war on the Houthis in March 2015, as Houthi rebels usually attacked local military and civilian targets such as homes and schools in the past. Endit
