Al Houthi Responds to Mecca Drone Threat
Reports have indicated that the Iran-backed Houthi group attempted to carry out an attack by launching a drone toward Mecca. However, the Saudi air defense forces managed to intercept and destroy the drone before it entered the holy city’s airspace. The coalition leadership confirmed that the attempt constitutes an unjustified targetting of the Grand Mosque. Meanwhile, the Houthis denied that their targets were near the holy sites, clarifying that their objectives were oil facilities and Saudi military bases far from religious sites. These events come amid ongoing Houthi escalation, with repeated attempts to target the kingdom, despite officials emphasizing that the security of the Two Holy Mosques is a red line.
