Saudi-led coalition says it destroyed two missiles targeting Taif and Yanbu
The Saudi-led coalition said it intercepted and destroyed two ballistic missiles reportedly sent by Yemen’s Houthis toward Taif and Yanbu. The statement came amid heightened tensions between the Houthis and the coalition, as airports and energy facilities in Saudi Arabia were also targeted.
The Saudi-led coalition announced that two ballistic missiles reportedly headed toward the cities of Taif and Yanbu had been intercepted and destroyed.
Coalition spokesperson Brigadier General Turki al-Maliki said in a post on his X account that the missiles had been launched by Yemen’s Houthis toward two cities in Saudi Arabia. Al-Maliki said the missiles had been intercepted and destroyed.
