The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen said on Tuesday, 10 November that its air defences destroyed a ballistic missile and a cruise missile fired by the Iran-aligned Houthis towards Riyadh.

The coalition separately intercepted a ballistic missile aimed at the kingdom’s southern region. Saudi civil defence had issued early-warning alerts for Riyadh and for Abha and Khamis Mushait before saying the danger had passed. The Houthis said they attacked the East-West pipeline, while denying a Saudi assertion that it was hit in the Medina region.
