RIYADH: The Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen said on Friday it intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile launched towards Saudi Arabia’s southern region, as well as a drone over Riyadh.
Maj. Gen. Turki Al-Maliki, the coalition’s spokesperson, said the ballistic missile was “launched by the terrorist Houthi militia toward the southern region.”
Earlier on Friday, the coalition said it had intercepted and destroyed a Houthi-launched drone over the Makkah region.
The incidents came amid weeks of Houthi attacks on Saudi cities, airports and energy infrastructure.
A missile strike on Riyadh’s King Khalid Airport on Oct. 10 killed 13 travellers and injured more than 300.
