Saudi-led coalition intercepts ballistic missile, drone targeting Al-Kharj and Eastern Region

The Saudi-led coalition intercepted a ballistic missile and drone launched toward Al-Kharj and the Eastern Region, likely by Houthi forces. This is a continuation of cross-border attacks from Yemen, but the targeting of Al-Kharj, which hosts a major air base, may signal an escalation in range or intent. The incident underscores ongoing regional instability despite ceasefire efforts.
