Saudi air defenses intercept two Houthi drones

Saudi air defences intercepted two Houthi drones, one of them targeting a residential area in the southern city of Abha, the Saudi press agency said on Tuesday, citing the Saudi-led coalition.

Al Masirah TV, citing a military spokesman, said on Monday the Houthis launched drone attacks on Abha airport.

#Houthi militias hit #Abha airport in #SaudiArabia wounding 26 civilians incl women & children

The weapon was almost certainly supplied by #Iran

How can anyone expect the Saudis to stop their justified fight to oust Iran from the Arabian Peninsula?https://t.co/no9x4Ta34b

The Houthis have launched several strikes at Abha since last week, when a missile attack on the airport wounded 26 people.
