Coalition intercepts Houthi ballistic missile aimed at Abha, Saudi Arabia

The Saudi-led coalition intercepted a Houthi ballistic missile targeting southwestern Saudi Arabia, with civil defense issuing and then lifting a warning in Abha after the threat passed. This is a continuation of recurring Houthi cross-border attacks, though the specific target and timing may signal shifting tactics. The incident underscores persistent regional instability and risks to civilian infrastructure.
