Arab Coalition to Prove Iran’s Involvement in Smuggling Missiles

The spokesperson for the coalition forces fighting to restore legitimacy in Yemen Col. Turki Al Maliki will hold on Monday a press conference to showcase evidence of the Iranian regime's involvement in providing and smuggling ballistic missiles and weapons to the terrorist Houthi militias.

Col. Maliki will demonstrate, at the Armed Forces Officers Club, Irans’s engagement in acts that jeopardize regional and international security and its role in spreading chaos.

The coalition’s air defense forces intercepted on Sunday seven ballistic missiles that targeted Saudi territories from Yemen.

According to Maliki, three of the missiles were directed at Riyadh and the others were fired toward the southwestern cities of Khamis Mushait, Najran and Jazan, near the Yemen border.

Maliki reiterated that this hostile and indiscriminate action by the Iran-backed Houthi group proves the continued involvement of the Iranian regime's support for the armed militia with qualitative capabilities in a clear and explicit challenge to UN Resolutions (2216) and (2231) in order to threaten the security of Saudi Arabia.
