Riyadh (Debriefer) - The Saudi-led coalition on Wednesday shot down two Houthi unmanned aerial vehicles en route to Saudi Arabia, spokesman for the coalition said.
The coalition Joint Forces intercepted and destroyed two bomb-laden drones heading for Saudi lands, Turki al-Maliki said in a statement carried by the Saudi Press Agency.
The Houthi group systematically launched the two planes to deliberately target civilian objects and civilians in the Kingdom's southern region.
On Sunday and Monday the coalition issued two separate statements declaring the destruction of 5 drones fired by the Houthis towards Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia has been leading a military coalition in Yemen since 26 March 2015, in support of forces loyal to President Hadi to retake areas controlled by the Iranian-backed Houthi group.
Since then, the Houthis have sent explosive-laden drones and boats and ballistic missiles targeting Saudi and Yemeni troops inside Saudi Arabia and Yemen.
