U.S. Embassy in Saudi Arabia warns of impending drone attack
21
The US Embassy in Riyadh posted a warning on the US State Department's official account. It claims that the embassy has information about possible attacks drones to the Saudi capital.
Be on the lookout! If you hear a loud explosion or the sound of sirens, immediately seek the nearest cover,
- American diplomats warn.
It is not clear when and where the information about the forthcoming attack came to the embassy. But it can be assumed that the American diplomatic department is afraid of new attacks on the territory of Saudi Arabia from the Houthis.
Yemeni rebels have previously announced a strike on the Abha airport in the southwest of KSA. But the Saudi military reported intercepting several drones the Houthis.
Drone attacks, actively used by Yemeni rebels fighting on the territory of their country against the forces of the Arab coalition, in which the main role is played by Saudi Arabia, have become commonplace in the kingdom in recent years.
Residents of the once calm monarchy are already accustomed to constant reports of drone strikes on oil storage facilities or tankers, or on government facilities or airports.
In this regard, the American Embassy is primarily concerned with the safety of its employees and US citizens who may be in Saudi Arabia.
