The Marib Governorate account reported that its media office said Houthi forces fired nine ballistic missiles and seven other projectiles at residential neighborhoods in Marib on 15 October. The post urged international action; it gave no casualty or damage figures. At 17:21 UTC, Ali Al-Sakani had cited local authorities as saying “at least 16 ballistic missiles and other projectiles” had been fired and that no casualties had been reported yet; the wording does not clarify whether the figure is missiles only or a combined count.

Verification: unverified

Evidence: Governorate media office reports Houthi missiles and projectiles fired at Marib residential neighborhoods, Ali Al-Sakani relays local-authorities report of projectiles toward Marib and no casualties reported yet

The Marib Governorate account reports its media office’s nine-ballistic-plus-seven-other projectile count. An earlier Ali Al-Sakani post cites local authorities as saying “at least 16 ballistic missiles and other projectiles” and that no casualties had been reported yet at that time; the wording does not clarify the count’s scope, and the casualty status is not a final confirmed zero. Neither report is independently verified here.
