JEDDAH, Sept 16 (KUNA) -- The Arab coalition supporting legitimacy in Yemen on Thursday declared that its forces intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile and four explosive-laden drones launched by "terrorist" Houthi militias to target civilians and the residential areas in the southern Saudi City of Jazan.
"Houthis' attempts are hostile and target deliberately civilians," Saudi Press Agency (SPA) quoted the coalition as saying on Twitter.
All attempts of "terrorist" Houthis have been repelled, the coalition noted, indicating that it would take operational measures to protect civilians and the residential areas, in line with international humanitarian law, the agency said. (end) nso.hm
