JEDDAH: The secretary-general of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation praised the combat effectiveness of the Arab coalition after the latest Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia were thwarted.
The coalition intercepted and destroyed a Houthi drone laden with explosives targeting Saudi Arabia’s southern region on Friday. The forces also destroyed a ballistic missile launched by Houthi militants toward the city of Najran on Thursday.
Dr. Yousef Al-Othaimeen denounced the militia group’s targeting of civilians and civilian infrastructure, and the use of civilians as human shields at missile launch sites.
