Saudi Arabia reports missile interceptions
Saudi Arabia intercepted six ballistic missiles launched by the Houthis from Yemen, in an attempt to target the cities of Taif and Yanbu. The Saudi air defenses successfully thwarted the attacks, leading to prior warnings issued for Mecca, Jeddah, Tabuk, and neighboring provinces, which were later lifted. The spokesperson for the Ministry of Defense explained that these warnings were precautionary alerts about the missile threat, but the threat has since been contained. These events come amid an escalation by the Houthis in their attacks on the Kingdom, including a claimed attempt to target Mecca with a drone, which the movement has denied.
