- Saudi coalition intercepted Houthi missiles and drones in attacks that included drones headed for Riyadh, according to Reuters and The Times.
- Saudi airstrikes hit targets in western Yemen after earlier Houthi attacks were reportedly averted, per Haaretz.
Why it matters: Drones reaching Riyadh place Saudi Arabia's capital in the direct line of Houthi fire, and the coalition's strikes into western Yemen after Houthi attacks were averted show a military-first response rather than restraint.
