Saudi air defences intercepted and destroyed four Houthi drones targeting the southern region of Saudi Arabia, according to announcements by the Saudi-led coalition. The aerial attacks mark the latest cross-border offensive directed at the Kingdom amid ongoing regional hostilities involving the Houthi movement in Yemen.
The strikes coincided with diplomatic efforts in the region, as top regional officials gathered in Iran for high-level talks aimed at easing tensions across the Middle East. Concurrently, Saudi air defences successfully countered other incoming airborne threats, including three ballistic missiles aimed at the Kingdom's Eastern Province.
