The Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen said on Saturday it intercepted and destroyed two explosives-laden drones launched by Yemen’s Houthi militias towards Saudi Arabia’s southern cities of Khamis Mushait and Jazan.

The Saudi-led Arab Coalition intercepted and destroyed on Friday six armed drones fired by the Iran-backed Houthis towards Saudi Arabia.

Coalition spokesman Colonel Turki al-Malki has slammed the repeated Houthi attacks against civilians as “war crimes.”

The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned on Sunday the targeting of vital facilities and infrastructure in Port Sudan and Kassala in Sudan, describing it as a threat to regional stability as well as to Arab and African national security.
The Kingdom called for an immediate end to the war in Sudan and urged all parties to spare the country and its people further suffering and destruction.

It also reiterated its stance that resolving the crisis requires a Sudanese-led political solution that respects Sudan’s sovereignty and unity, while supporting the country’s state institutions.
The ministry reaffirmed the Kingdom's rejection of these violations, stressing the urgent need to protect civilians and ensure the implementation of the Jeddah Declaration (Commitment to Protect Civilians in Sudan), signed on May 11, 2023.
