The Saudi-led Arab coalition announced Monday the downing of two drones fired by the Iran-backed Houthi militias in Yemen towards Saudi Arabia. Coalition spokesman Colonel Turki al-Maliki said the drones were launched from Sanaa and shot down over Yemeni territory. He stressed that all Houthi attempts to launch drones towards the Kingdom are doomed to fail, saying the coalition is taking all necessary measures, in line with the best rules of engagement, to deal with these threats and protect civilians. The repeated attempted attacks reflect the state of despair among the Houthis and underscore their losses on the ground as they wage a losing battle in Yemen, he stated. Maliki vowed that the coalition will continue to deter the Houthi actions to neutralize and destroy their abilities in line with international humanitarian law.
