Saudi Arabia has shot down two ballistic missiles fired from Yemen over Taif on Monday.
Saudi media reported that one missile was heading towards Mecca and the other over Jeddah.
According to Riyadh's embassy in Washington, the missiles were fired by Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen.
However, the Houthi movement has denied this, saying the Saudi regime is trying, through these allegations, to rally support for its brutal aggression against the Yemeni people.
