Confirmed · Abha, Saudi Arabia ·
The Saudi-led coalition, and separately the Saudi Defense Ministry, say Saudi air defences intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile that the Houthis launched toward southern Saudi Arabia on Monday; neither gave details of the intended target or casualties. Tasnim and Mehr News, citing unnamed sources, report explosions or blasts in southern Saudi Arabia, with Tasnim naming Abha.

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.
