RIYADH: The Saudi cabinet on Tuesday discussed the recent missile and drone attacks launched by the Iran-backed Houthi militia against the Kingdom.
Saudi air defenses intercepted and destroyed three ballistic missiles and three drones launched towards the eastern region, Jazan, and Najran at the weekend.
During the weekly meeting, chaired by King Salman via video conferencing, the council of ministers stressed that the Kingdom will take all measures required to protect its land, citizens and expatriates living on Saudi soil.
Saudi Arabia will also work on halting any form of hostilities committed by the Houthis and stopping them from constantly breaching international laws and customary rules.
The cabinet further commended the efficiency of Saudi air defenses and the Arab Coalition for Legitimacy in Yemen in combating the Houthi’s “atrocious and terroristic” attacks and foiling their bid to target civilians and civilian targets.
On Saturday, defense ministry spokesman Brig. Gen. Turki Al-Maliki, said the drones and missiles were all intercepted.
In Dammam, shrapnel scattered across a neighborhood, injuring a Saudi boy and girl, and damaging 14 houses.
