The Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen announced on Saturday the interception and destruction of two drones in the Riyadh and Southern Regions launched by the terrorist Houthi militia toward Saudi Arabia. In Yemen, the army announced that it had carried out 723 strikes and targeting operations "hitting Houthi militia sites, gatherings, fortifications, firing positions, vehicles, and combat equipment." According to an army statement, the operations included "37 airstrikes by warplanes, 56 targeting operations by drones, 89 by rocket launchers, and 541 by field artillery." Internationally, the United Nations Security Council condemned earlier this week the Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and their threats to commercial vessels in the Bab al-Mandeb Strait and the Red Sea, affirming the Kingdom's right to self-defense. The Council unanimously adopted Resolution 2837, which calls for an immediate halt to the attacks, intensified efforts to combat weapons smuggling to the group, and stricter oversight on its access to drone and ballistic missile components, alongside tasking the Panel of Experts with tracking the group's funding sources and revenues. The Gulf Cooperation Council welcomed the resolution, calling for it to be translated into a concrete commitment that protects civilians, facilities, and the safety of international navigation.
