The Arab coalition, led by Saudi Arabia, announced in Yemen, on Saturday, the destruction of a booby-trapped drone launched by the Houthi militia towards the Kingdom.

The coalition said, in a brief statement published by the Saudi Press Agency "SPA", that the air defenses intercepted and destroyed a booby-trapped drone launched by the Iranian-backed terrorist Houthi militia towards the Khamis Mushait area in the southwest of the Kingdom.

The coalition confirmed the continuation of the Houthi militia's hostile attempts to target civilians and civilian objects.

This is the fifth booby-trapped plane launched by the Houthis towards Saudi Arabia and destroyed by the Arab coalition, within 72 hours.

During the past three days, the Arab coalition announced the destruction of four drones launched by the Houthis, intermittently, towards Khamis Mushait, southern Saudi Arabia.
