Saudi-led coalition air defences intercepted and destroyed three missiles launched by Yemen’s Houthi group towards Saudi Arabia early Tuesday, Anadolu Agency reported.
Coalition spokesman Turki al-Maliki said on the social media platform “X” that a ballistic missile and a cruise missile aimed at Riyadh had been intercepted, along with another ballistic missile launched towards southern Saudi Arabia.
Al-Maliki said earlier on Monday that coalition forces had destroyed three Houthi facilities in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, used to produce ballistic missile components, solid fuel and electronic systems.
An attack on Saudi Arabia’s East-West oil pipeline in the western Medina region caused a small fire earlier that day, an Energy Ministry official said. No casualties were reported, and pipeline operations were unaffected. The official did not identify who carried out the attack.
The incidents occurred amid continued hostilities between the Houthis and the Saudi-led coalition, which supports Yemen’s internationally recognized government.
