Saudi-led coalition reports Houthi missile, drone interceptions; Saba reports Saudi strikes on Sanaa

The Saudi-led coalition reported on Tuesday that it intercepted two missiles launched by Iran-aligned Houthis toward Riyadh, a ballistic missile aimed at the kingdom's southern region, and a drone over the Eastern Province. According to Middle East Eye, the Eastern Province serves as a major economic hub containing most of the country's oil and gas reserves.

Additionally, Malay Mail reported that the East-West oil pipeline was targeted in the Medina region, causing a limited fire that was extinguished without affecting operations or causing injuries.

In Riyadh, Prince Mohammed bin Abdulrahman inspected a Saudi Aramco administrative building following an attempted drone attack on Sunday morning. The Saudi Ministry of Energy stated the attack caused limited damage due to falling debris but resulted in no injuries or fatalities. Prior to these incidents, Saudi authorities issued a brief warning to Riyadh residents regarding a hostile aerial threat.

Houthi-affiliated media outlets reported early Tuesday that the Saudi Air Force struck targets in Sanaa, the Yemeni capital. These reported targets included a building belonging to the Houthi oil company and a gas facility located in the northern part of the city.
