Saudi forces intercept Houthi drone launched at civilian areas in the kingdom
Houthis have repeatedly launched attacks against targets in neighbouring Saudi
The Saudi-led military coalition spokesman said late on Monday that the coalition had intercepted and destroyed a drone launched by Yemen’s Houthi group at civil targets in the kingdom, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
“The drone has not achieved its targets,” a coalition statement said.
The Iran-aligned Houthis, who are fighting the coalition in Yemen, have repeatedly launched attacks against targets in neighbouring Saudi Arabia.
A TV station run by the Houthis reported earlier on Monday that drone attacks had hit targets in southern Saudi Arabia.
