DUBAI—Saudi air defenses intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile fired by Yemen’s Houthi movement over the southern city of Jazan, the Saudi-led coalition said on Monday.

Earlier, the Houthis said the group had fired a Badr-1 ballistic missile at Jazan’s airport, without giving any further details.
