Saudi Arabia intercepts barrage of Houthi missiles and drones

Saudi Arabia intercepted a series of missiles and drones, including over its capital, Riyadh, on Sunday as the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen continued to counter attacks by the Iran-aligned Houthi rebels. The attacks came as authorities prepared to reopen two terminals at Riyadh’s main international airport following a deadly strike earlier this month. The Saudi-led coalition said air defences intercepted and destroyed 10 ballistic missiles launched towards the kingdom’s southern region.
