The Saudi-led coalition says air defences intercepted three drones aimed at different parts of the kingdom, one over the Mecca region, one over the Eastern Province and one towards the southern region, according to spokesman Turki Al-Maliki on X. The Houthis claim attacks on a Saudi airport and an airbase. An Aaj News item reports a drone interception in Saudi Arabia without further detail.

Corroborated: 2 independent sources.

Details by origin

Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.

Not corroborated by a second origin: what happened, place, who did it, target.

Not stated in any report: time.
