RIYADH: The Coalition fighting to restore legitimacy in Yemen said Tuesday that it has successfully intercepted a ballistic missile launched by the Houthi militia toward Riyadh.
Earlier, the Saudi Civil Defense said it had lifted a security alert after it issued one earlier in Riyadh warning of a possible aerial threat.
"A warning has been issued by the National Early Warning Platform in Riyadh City to alert for a potential danger," the Saudi civil defence said in a statement on X.
