Saudi air defenses intercepted two drones and a ballistic missile launched by the Houthi militia toward Riyadh and Khamis Mushait, according to reports. The Saudi civil defense issued alerts for Khamis Mushait and Abha but not for the capital, raising questions about the targeting strategy. The Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen confirmed the interception, with forces spokesman Col. Turki Al-Maliki stating that two drones aimed at Riyadh were destroyed. Later, a ballistic missile launched by the Houthi group was also intercepted. The attacks highlight ongoing tensions in the region, with the Houthi militia backed by Iran. The intercepted weapons were launched from Yemen, a common pattern in the conflict. The Saudi-led coalition continues to monitor and respond to such threats, emphasizing its defensive capabilities. The incident underscores the persistent threat posed by the Houthi group and the need for continued vigilance.
