Tehran (ISNA) – Iranian defense minister has denied Iran's involvement in a missile attack on the King Khalid international airport in northeastern Riyadh by Yemen's Houthi Ansarullah movement.

Referring to US officials' claim suggesting that Iran has participated in the missile strike on the King Khalid international airport in Riyadh by Yemen's Houthi Ansarullah movement, Iranian defense minister General Amir Hatami said, "Does anyone ask the United States what you are giving to Saudi Arabia?"

"It is not supposed that the US accuses Iran for everything that happens in the region, but it is not unlikely from the enemy," he added.

"The enemy uses every opportunity to accuse Iran and we will certainly reject it," General Hatami went on to say.
