Saudi Arabia says air defenses intercept Houthi missiles over capital, and other Mideast news
- On Tuesday, Saudi authorities destroyed two ballistic missiles fired by Iran-backed Houthi rebels after explosions were heard over the capital, Riyadh, while intercepting three additional missiles aimed at the country's eastern region.
- Fighting intensified elsewhere as the Houthi-run Health Ministry blamed Saudi-backed government forces for a strike late Monday on a gas station near Taiz, reportedly killing two people and wounding several others.
- Coalition forces reported intercepting four Houthi drones targeting the south, though the Houthis claimed they hit the Ras Tanoura refinery—an assertion Saudi Arabia has not confirmed.
- Egyptian lawmakers approved a measure Monday supporting Saudi Arabia, prompting Houthi political bureau member Mohammed al-Bukhaiti to warn the move could draw Egypt into "hostile action" against Yemen.
- Saudi Arabia previously issued attack warnings for Riyadh, Abha City, Najran City, and the Khamis Mushait Governorate; those alerts were later lifted without reported damage, though regional tensions persist.
