The Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen said on Thursday it destroyed eight explosives-laden drones launched by Yemen's Houthi militias towards Saudi Arabia.

The Coalition said the Houthis attempted to target both Najran and Jazan's universities.

The Houthis also fired a ballistic missile from Sanaa which landed in the Yemeni governorate of al-Jawf, the Coalition added.

Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Secretary-General Jasem Albudaiwi stressed that the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque by an Israeli minister and several extremist settlers constitutes a blatant violation of Islamic sanctities and reflects the occupation forces’ intent to continue destabilizing security and stability in the Palestinian territories, SPA reported.
Albudaiwi pointed out that these repeated incursions by settlers and Israeli officials into the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque represent a serious breach of international law and the existing historical and legal status quo of Jerusalem and its sanctities.
He highlighted that this act is a clear and blatant violation of the sanctity of Al-Aqsa Mosque, a provocation to the sentiments of Muslims, and an escalation that exacerbates tensions in the region, pushing the situation into a continuous cycle of violence.
