开罗，10月27日 —— 沙特领导的也门联盟周二表示，拦截并摧毁了胡塞武装向沙特阿拉伯两个地区发射的弹道导弹和无人机，因为王国与这一伊朗支持的组织之间的冲突正在升级。
CAIRO, Oct 27 - The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen said on Tuesday it intercepted and destroyed ballistic missiles and drones launched by the Houthis towards two regions of Saudi Arabia, as the conflict between the kingdom and the Iran-aligned group intensifies.
联盟称，胡塞武装向沙特阿拉伯东部地区发射了三枚弹道导弹，向该国南部地区发射了四架无人机。
The Houthis launched three ballistic missiles towards Saudi Arabia's Eastern Region, and four drones towards the country's Southern Region, the coalition said.
沙特民防部门针对东部地区和哈尔季省的潜在敌对威胁发布了早期预警警报，随后表示这两个地区的危险均已解除。
Saudi Civil Defense issued early warning alerts for a potential hostile threat in the Eastern Region and in Kharj governorate, later saying the danger had passed in both areas.
自胡塞武装上个月夺取也门红海沿岸战略区域、向曼德海峡推进以来，沙特加大了对胡塞武装的打击力度。曼德海峡是海湾石油生产国的关键全球航运路线，位于阿拉伯半岛霍尔木兹海峡的另一侧。
Saudi Arabia has intensified its strikes on the Houthis since the group captured strategic areas along Yemen's Red Sea coast last month, advancing towards the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a key global shipping route for Gulf oil producers on the other side of the Arabian Peninsula from the Strait of Hormuz.
双方重燃战火打破了2022年联合国斡旋达成的停火协议，该协议在很大程度上停止了沙特领导的联盟（支持也门国际公认政府）与胡塞武装（控制首都萨那）之间的袭击。此次升级还在美国和以色列对伊朗的战争中开辟了另一条战线。
The renewed fighting between the two sides has shattered a 2022 UN-brokered truce that largely halted attacks between the Saudi-led coalition, which backs Yemen's internationally recognised government, and the Houthis, who control the capital Sanaa. The escalation has also opened another front in the US-Israeli war on Iran.
