Calling the attacks "reprehensible," Rubio urged them to be halted "now."
Expressing solidarity with Riyadh and the Saudi people, Rubio also extended condolences to those who lost their lives in the attack and their families.
Separately, US President Donald Trump described recent Houthi attacks as "very bad" and "terrible things.”
Calling the Saudis “good fighters," Trump told reporters at Joint Base Andrews that the Saudi army is "able to defend" itself.
