Saudi Coalition Intercepts Drones Headed for Riyadh Amid Ongoing Conflict with Houthis

The Saudi-led coalition fighting against Yemen's Houthi rebels claimed to have intercepted two drones launched by the Iran-backed group, which were allegedly heading for the capital city of Riyadh.

The coalition spokesperson stated that air defenses successfully destroyed the drones, preventing any potential damage or disruption in the area.

This development comes as part of a larger conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Houthi rebels. The Houthis have imposed a naval blockade on Saudi Arabia, impacting oil exports and causing energy prices to rise.
