Early Sunday, the Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen announced it had successfully intercepted and destroyed two Houthi ballistic missiles aimed at Khamis Mushait, as well as three drones over Riyadh and Eastern Saudi Arabia. Coalition spokesman Maj. Gen. Turki Al-Maliki stated that the missiles were fired by the Houthi militia towards Khamis Mushait in the south of the country.
The coalition confirmed that forces had also intercepted and destroyed two drones in the Riyadh region and one in the Eastern Province. Earlier, Saudi Civil Defense had issued early warning alerts in Riyadh, Abha, and Khamis Mushait before declaring the threat had subsided.

The coalition had also announced the destruction of two ballistic missile launchers in Yemen's Saada governorate on Saturday.
