Saudi Arabia announced on Monday that it has intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile fired by Houthi forces in Yemen targeting Riyadh, according to reports from Walla.
The interception represents the latest in a series of cross-border missile attacks by the Iran-backed Houthi militia against Saudi Arabia. Such incidents have significant implications for regional security and oil market stability, given Saudi Arabia’s critical role in global energy supplies.
The successful interception demonstrates Saudi Arabia’s air defence capabilities, though the continued missile threat from Yemen underscores ongoing tensions in the region.
