The Saudi air defense system destroyed an explosive drone launched by the Houthi militia, Iran's arm in Yemen, at dawn on Wednesday towards southern Saudi Arabia.
The Saudi Press Agency quoted the spokesman for the Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen, Colonel Turki Al-Maliki, on Wednesday, as saying: "The joint coalition forces were able to intercept and destroy an explosive drone launched by the terrorist Houthi militia."
Al-Maliki had announced earlier that the joint coalition forces managed, on Tuesday morning, to intercept and destroy a drone (booby trapped) launched by the terrorist Houthi militia in a systematic and deliberate manner to target civilian objects and civilians in the southern region.
He stressed that the coalition will continue measures to deter the terrorist Houthi militia and hold those involved accountable in accordance with international law, as well as holding accountable the terrorist elements that plan and carry out these terrorist acts.
It is worth noting that the Iranian arm has intensified its drone attacks on Saudi Arabia during the past two weeks, with one almost daily attack.
