Saudi Arabia Says Intercepted Ballistic Missile From Yemen

The Royal Saudi Air Defense Forces on Monday intercepted a ballistic missile fired from Yemen, the Arab coalition said. The coalition condemned the escalation of violence by the Houthi rebels and their aides.

“The missile was launched at a time when coalition is seeking to cooperate with the international community to support Kuwait peace talks,” it said. The coalition announced that it would continue to maintain truce, but added that it reserves the right to respond at the appropriate time, in case of recurrence of such violations.
