RIYADH-SABA
The Arab coalition intercepted a Houthi drone on Thursday evening as it was heading towards Abha in Saudi Arabia.

The drone was launched from Sanaa, the militant-controlled capital.

The Coalition’s spokesman Col. Turki Al-Maliki said, "All the attempts by the Iran-backed terrorist militia to launch drone attacks end up as a failure." "The Coalition takes all operational procedures and adopts the best rules of engagement towards these drones to protect the civilians," he told the Saudi Press Agency.

He said the command of the Coalition's combined forces is committed to continuing the deterrent measures against the terrorist militia to destroy their capabilities with all firmness."
