Najran:Two officers from the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen were killed when their helicopter crashed near the border with Yemen. The incident involved an AH-6i reconnaissance helicopter belonging to Saudi Arabia's Ministry of National Guard, which went down due to a "technical malfunction" inside Saudi territory in the Najran region.

According to Namibia Press Agency, coalition spokesperson Turki Al-Malki shared the information about the crash on the social media platform X. The crash resulted in the death of both officers onboard.

On the same day, the coalition announced the interception of multiple drones and missiles across various regions of Saudi Arabia. Al-Malki stated that three drones were intercepted and destroyed, two over the Riyadh region and one over the Eastern Province. Additionally, two ballistic missiles launched by Yemen's Houthi group aimed at the southwestern Saudi city of Khamis Mushait were intercepted and destroyed as well.

The statements did not report any casualties or damage related to the interceptions of the drones and ballistic missiles.
