开罗,9月26日 - 由沙特领导的也门联军周六早些时候表示,他们拦截了两架由伊朗支持的胡塞武装向沙特首都利雅得发射的无人机。
CAIRO, Sept 26 - Yemen's Saudi-led coalition said early on Saturday it had intercepted two drones launched by the Iran-backed Houthis towards the Saudi capital Riyadh.
联军在X平台上发文称,他们正在监测针对该王国的导弹威胁和无人机袭击,但没有提供更多细节。
The coalition posted on X that it was monitoring missile threat and drones launched at the kingdom without providing further details.
沙特民防部门此前已对卡米斯穆沙伊特和阿巴地区发布了警报,但未对首都利雅得采取行动。
The Saudi civil defence had sent alerts overnight for Khamis Mushait and Abha but not for the capital.
胡塞武装控制着也门大部分人口密集地区和北部地区,自7月宣布对利雅得实施海上封锁以来,他们一直持续对沙特阿拉伯发动攻击,目标包括红海中的沙特船只。
The Houthis, who control the most populous parts of Yemen and much of the north, have been launching attacks against Saudi Arabia since declaring a naval blockade against Riyadh in July, with strikes targeting Saudi vessels in the Red Sea.
这些攻击还针对沙特的城市、能源基础设施和航运设施,加剧了由于美国-以色列对伊朗的战争而导致的全球石油供应压力,同时使通过霍尔木兹海峡的海上运输通道面临风险。
The attacks have targeted Saudi cities, energy infrastructure and shipping, adding to pressures on global oil supplies caused by the US-Israeli war on Iran and putting at risk the main alternative Red Sea route for Gulf exports while traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remains largely blocked.
