Saudi Arabia intercepts Al Houthi missile

Riyadh: Saudi air defence forces intercepted a missile fired by Al Houthi militia in neighbouring Yemen at the southern city of Najran on Saturday, Al Arabiya television reported.

Al Arabiya gave no further details. The Al Houthi-run Saba news agency earlier said a ballistic missile was fired at a Saudi National Guard base in Najran, saying it had led to “losses in the ranks of the enemy and its military equipment”.
