LONDON: The Arab coalition intercepted a Houthi ballistic missile fired toward Najran and an explosive-laden drone launched toward Khamis Mushait on Friday. The militia continues to target civilians and residential areas, the coalition said. The attacks come a day after the Houthis targeted a vital oil terminal in Jazan which resulted in a fire. Several Saudi authorities, regional organizations and other countries condemned the attack. The Saudi Ministry of Energy said “these acts of sabotage target the security of energy supplies.” A government spokesman later condemned the attack that targeted the stability of global energy supplies. The UK’s Minister for Middle East and North Africa James Cleverly condemned the “appalling attacks” carried out by the Houthis against Saudi Arabia on Friday, and urged “all parties to put Yemeni people first” on the sixth anniversary of the Yemen conflict. British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab also condemned the attacks and said they “threaten the path to peace.” He said “All parties must urgently engage with the UN peace process.” Yemen’s government said the escalation in terrorist attacks carried out by the Houthi militia on residential areas and civilians in the Kingdom days after the Saudi initiative was announced confirms the militia’s true position on peace and dependence on Iranian agenda. The country’s Minister of Information Muammar Al-Eryani said the terrorist attacks against civilian areas and vital installations in the Kingdom represent a serious threat to civilian lives, energy supplies, and the global economy.
