The Saudi-led Arab Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen announced on Tuesday that 13 civilians were injured and seven houses and two vehicles were damaged in terrorist Houthi attacks on three Saudi cities.

Coalition spokesman Major General Turki Al-Malki said the Houthic carried out on Monday “sinful ballistic missile and drone attacks on civilian areas in Khamis Mushait, Abha and Taif.”

“The deliberate continued attacks demonstrates the Houthis’ terrorist approach and extremist ideology,” he added.

The Coalition will address these attacks “responsibly and firmly to protect the sovereignty of the Kingdom, civilians and civilian areas from these attacks in line with Article 51 of the UN Charter, the right to self-defense and international humanitarian law,” he stressed.

The Coalition will take all necessary operational measures to deter the terrorist militia, he vowed.
