Saudi-led coalition downs Houthi drone over Medina; Houthis deny attack
On November 6, 2026, the Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen intercepted and destroyed a drone launched by Yemen's Houthis over Saudi Arabia's Medina region. The Iran-aligned Houthi group denied carrying out any attack towards Saudi Arabia. Medina, home to one of Islam's holiest sites, has seen increased cross-border tensions amid ongoing conflicts involving the Saudi-backed government and the Houthis controlling Yemen's capital, Sanaa.
