RIYADH, 04 December 2022, (TON): The Arab coalition said “Saudi Arabia's defenses on Monday thwarted a number of Houthi attempts to target the Kingdom.”
The Kingdom’s defenses intercepted and destroyed five drones that the coalition said “it had been monitoring and were launched from the Yemeni capital Sanaa.”
The coalition said “operational options are on the table in response to the threat and to deter the hostile behavior of the Houthi militia.”
Earlier on Monday, the Kingdom’s Ministry of Defense said air defenses intercepted and destroyed a “hostile aerial target” launched toward the city of Taif.
The ministry said “the aerial threat was launched by the Houthi militia from inside Yemen.”
It added “we are taking deterrent operational measures to neutralize the threat and protect civilians.”
