The Saudi-led coalition reported another missile interception on Nov. 5, saying its air defenses destroyed a ballistic missile launched toward the Madinah Region.

The Saudi Press Agency carried the statement from coalition spokesman Maj. Gen. Turki Al-Malki, who attributed the launch to Yemen’s Houthi militia.

In a separate announcement, the coalition said three ballistic missiles had been headed toward the Eastern Province, an episode EconoTimes covered in an earlier report on the interceptions.
