Coalition air force units said on Friday it managed to intercept and destroy two drones launched by Houthi forces.

Coalition's spokesman Col. Turki Al-Maliki said the first was destroyed at 9:28 p.m. local time, and said the drones were launched from the province of Sanaa and were intercepted and destroyed in Yemeni airspace.

Al-Maliki reiterated the coalition’s desire to implement “appropriate deterrence measures to deal with hostile and terrorist acts” by the Houthis, which break international humanitarian law.
