Saudi Arabia: A kindergarten and a medical complex in Riyadh were damaged by remnants of an intercepted missile.

The Urban Defense Organization of Saudi Arabia announced that a kindergarten and a medical complex in Riyadh were damaged by shrapnel from a missile.

This incident happened hours after an explosion was heard in the Saudi capital.

The message of this organization, published on the X social network, reads: "After intercepting a ballistic missile, parts of the missile fell in Riyadh, resulting in damage to a kindergarten and a medical complex." The message did not say if anyone was injured in the incident.

Statements by the Saudi Arabian authorities about the missiles hitting civilian facilities are relatively rare, and the authorities in that country have issued only a few statements about the consequences of the Houthi attacks in recent weeks.
