Saudi Arabia's air defences have intercepted two ballistic missiles above the kingdom's capital, Riyadh, and the southern city of Jizan, according to a spokesman for the Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen, EDNews reports citing Aljazeera.
Turki al-Malki said the missiles were destroyed around 23:23 (20:23 GMT) on Saturday. In a statement quoted by the official State Press Agency, the colonel blamed the foiled assaults on Yemen's Houthi rebels and said no casualties have been recorded so far.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility, however.
