Saudi Arabia says debris from intercepted missiles fell in Mecca region
|
[Jpost] Saudi Arabia's civil defense said its air defenses intercepted and destroyed missiles launched by the Houthis, and debris fell in several locations.
Saudi Arabia said debris from two ballistic missiles intercepted by its air defenses fell in the Mecca region on Wednesday, as the kingdom and Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi movement exchanged attacks in an escalating conflict.
The Houthis launched the missiles towards the region, and air defenses intercepted and destroyed them, with debris falling in several locations, including Sabuhah village, Saudi Arabia's civil defense said in a statement.
The Houthis have repeatedly denied Saudi accusations that they target Mecca and Medina, Islam's two holiest cities, saying their military operations are directed at military and strategic targets elsewhere in Saudi Arabia. They have yet to comment on the latest incident.
"This hostile targeting of civilian objects constitutes a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law and reflects the dangerous hostile approach pursued by the Houthi militia," Saudi Arabia's civil defense said early on Thursday.
