Riyadh, April 7 (Petra) -- Saudi Arabia’s air defenses intercepted and destroyed four drones on Tuesday, the Ministry of Defense announced, marking a continued wave of aerial attacks.

Brigadier General Turki al-Malki, the ministry's official spokesperson, stated that the four drones were neutralized over the past few hours, according to the official Saudi Press Agency (SPA).

The latest interceptions follow an earlier announcement by the Ministry of Defense at dawn on Tuesday, in which it confirmed the destruction of 18 drones targeting the kingdom. //Petra// AF
