Saudi Arabia’s air defenses have intercepted an explosive drone launched by Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis toward the Kingdom, the Arab Coalition said on Sunday.

“We deal with sources of threat resolutely to protect civilians and civilian objects from hostile attacks,” the Coalition said in a statement carried by the official Saudi Press Agency (SPA).

The war in Yemen began in 2015, when Saudi Arabia led a military coalition to fighting the Houthi expansion in Yemen and restore the UN-recognized government.
