Coalition spokesperson Brig. Gen. Turki Al-Maliki said on X that air defenses intercepted and destroyed a hostile drone over the Riyadh region.
In a separate post, Al-Maliki said debris from the interception fell to the ground, but caused no injuries, adding that the relevant authorities were responding to the site.
On Friday, Al-Maliki announced that another drone launched by the Houthi militia had been intercepted and destroyed over the Medina region.
The Houthis have been carrying out attacks against Saudi Arabia since fighting resumed in Yemen in July.
The Houthis have intensified their attacks on Saudi Arabia, which supports the Yemeni government, this month. The attacks have included strikes on Riyadh Airport, one of which killed 13 people and injured hundreds on October 10, marking the deadliest attack on Saudi territory in more than a decade.
