Flights heading from Riyadh and Jeddah to Sanaa and Aden were stopped temporarily," Abdullah El-Ajhar of the airliner told AlWatan daily.
Fighting has been going on intermittently for months in the north of Yemen between the Houthis, who carry the name of their leaders' clan, and Sanaa-backed tribes.
