CAIRO (Reuters) – The Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen on Sunday intercepted and destroyed five explosive-laden drones launched by Iran-aligned Houthis towards the kingdom, Saudi state TV reported.
The coalition had also said earlier that it destroyed a ballistic missile launched by the Houthis towards the Saudi city of Jazan, Saudi state TV reported.
The Saudi-led coalition intervened in Yemen in March 2015 against the Houthis after the movement ousted the internationally recognised government from the capital Sanaa.
