Arabia Saudită susține că a doborât o dronă a rebelilor Houthi care se îndrepta spre Mecca. „Este o linie roșie”

Saudi air defense intercepted a Houthi drone before it could enter restricted airspace over Mecca, marking a significant escalation in Houthi attacks. The coalition claims this is the second attempt to target Mecca since 2017. The drone was destroyed south of the city, with Saudi authorities emphasizing the protection of holy sites. Houthi representatives denied any intention to attack Mecca, calling the accusations false. This incident follows a series of Houthi attacks on Saudi territory, which have resulted in civilian casualties. The ongoing conflict has implications for maritime routes and Saudi oil exports.
