Saudi-led coalition spokesman Major General Turki al-Maliki said in a post on social media platform X that two ballistic missiles fired by the Houthis were heading toward Riyadh; Saudi Arabia's air defense system detected and destroyed them. In addition, the destruction of two more drones in eastern Saudi Arabia was reported in separate posts made less than an hour apart.

Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia's civil defense agency had issued an emergency alert about a potential danger in the capital Riyadh. Later, in a separate message, the agency said the fear of danger had passed. However, residents were urged to follow security-related instructions. They were also asked not to gather anywhere and to refrain from taking photos or videos.

On the other hand, Bahrain's Ministry of Interior also issued an alert about a potential security threat. In a message on X, citizens and residents of the country were urged to remain calm and go to the nearest safe place. They were also told to follow news published by official sources in the interest of public safety. However, the ministry did not provide details on what kind of threat was feared in Bahrain.
