Saudi Coalition Intercepts Drone Over Mecca Region Amid Houthi Tensions
Coalition spokesperson Turki al-Maliki confirmed the operation in a post on X, but provided no information about possible casualties or property damage.
The interception followed another incident a day earlier, when coalition forces reported destroying a ballistic missile and two drones launched by the Houthis toward Saudi territory.
The latest developments come amid growing hostilities between the Houthi movement and the Saudi-led alliance, which backs Yemen's internationally recognized government.
Saudi Arabia established a military coalition against the Houthis in March 2015, following the group's takeover of Sanaa and other parts of Yemen in 2014.
