Coalition Intercepts Houthi Missiles and Drone Targeting Riyadh and Saudi Regions
The Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen announced the interception and destruction of missiles and a drone launched by the Houthi group towards the Saudi capital and other areas.
Coalition spokesperson Brigadier General Turki Al-Maliki confirmed the destruction of two ballistic missiles, a cruise missile, and the interception of an explosive-laden drone.
The Houthi attacks targeted Riyadh, the Eastern Province, and southern regions, prompting the Civil Defense to activate emergency sirens in Riyadh, Abha, and Khamis Mushait.
Deputy Governor of Riyadh, Prince Mohammed bin Abdulaziz, inspected the Aramco administrative building and confirmed that essential operations remained unaffected by the attacks.
The Ministry of Energy previously reported limited damage to an Aramco tower located in the financial district as a result of these incidents.
