RIYADH-SABA
The air defenses of the Saudi-led Arab Coalition downed a Houthi armed drone over the sky of Khamees Musheit in Saudi Arabia early Thursday.

The Yemeni militia launched the drone from the northern Yemen province of Sana'a to attack civil properties in the Saudi city.

The Coalition's spokesman Col. Turki al-Maliki denied the militia's claim the drone attacked sensitive sites in King Khaled airbase saying the Houthi "lies refllet the state of despair the militia is going through."

But he said the repeated Houthi attempts to attack civilians and civilian places proves the criminality and terrorism of this militia whose hostilities have moved to the level of war crimes according to the international humanitarian law.
