DUBAI—Two children were injured and buildings were damaged when a ballistic missile was intercepted over Saudi Arabia’s oil-rich eastern region on Saturday, the country’s ministry of defence said.

The coalition blamed the attack on the Iran-aligned Houthi rebels. There was no immediate claim of responsibility in Houthi-run media.
