Yahya Saree, a spokesman for the group’s armed forces, said in a tweet to him on Twitter: “Once again, the Air Force has been able to target important sites at King Khalid Air Base and Abha International Airport, at dawn today, Friday, with three drones of Samad 3 and Qasef 2k. And the injury was accurate. “
Yesterday, Thursday, the Arab coalition led by Saudi Arabia announced the destruction of a ballistic missile launched by the Houthis towards the city of Jizan, in the south of the Kingdom. On Wednesday, the coalition intercepted a drone launched by the Houthis towards the Khamis Mushait area.
