The Saudi-led coalition, which has been involved in the ongoing conflict in Yemen, issued a statement claiming that its air defense systems shot down six ballistic missiles. According to the coalition, these projectiles were launched by Houthi forces and were directed toward the Saudi cities of Taif and Yanbu.

At the time of the announcement, there has been no official response or confirmation from the Houthi movement regarding the coalition's claims. The incident marks another development in the long-standing regional conflict, where cross-border missile and drone attacks have become a recurring point of tension. While the coalition maintains that the missiles were intercepted before reaching their intended targets, the lack of independent verification or a statement from the Houthi side leaves the full scope of the event based solely on the coalition's report. The coalition has not provided further details regarding potential debris or casualties resulting from the interception process.
