King Salman said Saudi Arabia was keen to reach a comprehensive political solution in Yemen and to achieve security and development for its people. The two sides discussed Iran’s behavior in the region, its destabilizing activities and its support for terrorist groups. The Arab coalition thwarted a second Houthi attack on Saudi Arabia just hours after it had destroyed a drone launched by the militia toward Khamis Mushait. The Organization of Islamic Cooperation condemned the militia’s attempt to target civilians in Saudi Arabia. Heavy fighting between rebels and government forces in Marib has killed at least 27 people, tribal leaders and security officials said on Friday.
