Saudi forces intercept ‘ballistic missile and drones’ fired by Yemeni Houthis towards kingdom as truce ends
By: RT News 06-16-20 / Updated 2 hours ago Re: https://www.rt.com/newsline/491974-s...-drones-yemen/ The Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen said it intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile fired by the Houthi movement towards the south of the kingdom on Tuesday. Several armed drones launched the previous night towards the southern city of Khamis Mushait were also intercepted, according to the military. The missile was launched towards the southern region of Najran, it added.

A Houthi military spokesman tweeted that the attack on Khamis Mushait was in response to coalition airstrikes. On Monday, the Houthi health minister claimed in a Twitter post that a coalition airstrike had killed 13 people, including four children, in Saada province. The movement has not immediately confirmed the missile attack. Residents said coalition warplanes struck military sites south and west of the Houthi-held capital Sanaa on Tuesday. Coalition officials were later cited as saying that heavy airstrikes had been carried out on Houthi targets in Sanaa and neighboring Omran provinces. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Personal note: It's gotta be the hot weather triggering all these events. Yep the Middle East and N & S Korea are just itching to try their weapons and make a statement. They are all nuts! Boats
