6 Houthi drones and 6 missiles targeting Saudi Arabia intercepted on Tuesday

Earlier on Tuesday, the Coalition announced in separate statements the interception and destruction of a cruise missile in the Riyadh region, without further details.

It also announced the interception and destruction of a ballistic missile launched by the Houthis toward the Harad area in Al-Ahsa Governorate in the Eastern Province, and another toward the city of Dhahran.

It added that fragments of the missile intercepted over Dhahran fell in a residential area in the city.

The Coalition indicated that the competent authorities began dealing with the site, with the available statements not including further details regarding casualties or material damage.

It also announced the interception and destruction of 3 cruise missiles and two drones in the Riyadh and Southern regions, in addition to the interception and destruction of 3 drones north of Riyadh, without details regarding the results of the interception operations.

The Saudi Civil Defense announced on Tuesday the "end of the danger" in the Eastern Province and the city of Riyadh, minutes after sounding an alarm.

In contrast, the Houthi group threatened on Tuesday to target the headquarters of "Aramco" in Dammam in the east of the Kingdom, King Khalid Airport in Riyadh, and the company's Riyadh refinery, in response to any attack carried out by the "Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen" on its sites in the capital, Sanaa.

The Coalition had previously announced on Tuesday issuing a prior warning to civilians to evacuate the site of the Yemen Petroleum Company at the Al-Sabaha central station in Sanaa, before "carrying out a qualitative operation," which it later said targeted "vital sources fueling the war effort" of the Houthis.

Since October 5, 5 Saudi airports have been subjected to 10 attacks, resulting in the death of 20 people and the injury of hundreds, in addition to material damage and disruptions to air traffic.

The attacks come in light of continuous military escalation between Saudi Arabia and the Houthi group since last July, which included targeting civil aviation facilities and energy installations in the Kingdom.

Since March 2015, Saudi Arabia has led a military coalition to support the Yemeni government in the face of the Houthi group, which has controlled the capital, Sanaa, and several governorates since September 2014.
