沙特阿拉伯民防部门表示，周五在靠近也门边境的西南部吉赞地区发布了紧急警报，随后宣布危险已经过去。
Saudi Arabia issued an emergency alert Friday in the southwestern Jazan region, near the border with Yemen, before announcing that the danger had passed, the country's Civil Defense said.
该警报通过国家紧急情况早期预警平台发布，敦促居民遵守安全指示，避免聚集，并不要拍摄，但未说明威胁的性质。当局随后宣布该地区安全。
The warning, issued through the National Early Warning Platform for Emergencies, urged residents to follow safety instructions, avoid gatherings and refrain from filming, without specifying the nature of the threat. Authorities subsequently announced that the area was safe.
此事发生之际，沙特阿拉伯与也门胡塞武装组织之间的紧张局势正在升级。
The incident came amid escalating tensions between Saudi Arabia and Yemen's Houthi group.
周五早些时候，沙特领导的联军表示，它拦截并摧毁了一枚胡塞武装向沙特西部发射的巡航导弹。
Earlier Friday, the Saudi-led coalition said it had intercepted and destroyed a cruise missile launched by the Houthis toward the kingdom's western region.
