> Coalition spokesperson Maj. Gen. Turki al-Maliki made the announcement Nov. 14; the coalition provided no details about launchers, targets, casualties or damage.

The Saudi-led coalition announced Saturday that it intercepted two drones over southern Riyadh, a security incident drawing attention to aerial threats near the Saudi capital amid regional conflict.

Coalition spokesperson Maj. Gen. Turki al-Maliki made the announcement Nov. 14. The coalition did not disclose details about the launchers or targets and provided no information about casualties or damage.

The interception comes amid ongoing conflict involving the coalition and Yemen's Houthi movement. The coalition also intercepted a drone in the Eastern Province on Friday and one over Mecca on Nov. 6.

The Houthis claimed missile and drone attacks on Saudi oil and military sites on Sunday. Those claims do not establish who launched the two drones near Riyadh. The latest announcement identified the count and location but disclosed no further details about the launchers or targets. The claims and interceptions show repeated aerial incidents across Saudi Arabia amid the continuing conflict.
