The Houthi movement says an airstrike by Saudi Arabia on a prison in Yemen killed nine people, 第一财经 reported on Tuesday, September 22, 2026.

According to 第一财经, the Houthis attributed the strike to Saudi forces and said the target was a detention facility inside Yemen. The report did not specify the location of the prison, the number of people injured, or when the strike took place.

第一财经 published the claim as a headline item and linked to further coverage of the story through Google News. No full article text was available in the material reviewed, and no independent confirmation of the death toll was provided.

The reported strike is the latest incident in the long-running conflict in Yemen, where the Houthis have been fighting a Saudi-led coalition since 2015. Prison facilities have been hit before during the war, and casualty figures from such strikes have often been disputed by the parties involved.

Because the account comes from one side of the conflict, the details could not be verified from the information available. 第一财经 did not include a response from Saudi officials in the material reviewed.

What to watch next: whether Saudi authorities respond to the allegation and whether independent monitors confirm the reported death toll.
