RIYADH: The Arab Coalition said Wednesday it destroyed a bomb-laden drone fired by the Houthi militia to target Abha International Airport, the Dubai-based al-Hadath channel reported.
The coalition also said that it is “taking operational measures to protect civilian objects.”
The militia, backed by Iran’s regime, regularly employs drones to target the Kingdom.
It has targeted Abha’s airport in previous times, and in one of those attacks it left eight people wounded from shattered debris.
