"Riyadh Affirms Participation in Anti-Iran Military Coalition"

Saudi Arabia confirmed its involvement in a regional military coalition, including Israel, the US, Jordan, the UK, and France, to repel an Iranian attack against Israel, with 99% of the Iranian drones and missiles being destroyed before reaching their targets. Saudi Arabia's airspace was used by the drones and missiles, and the country reportedly has a system to automatically intercept any suspicious entities. The Saudi Royal family accused Iran of instigating the Gaza war through its proxy group Hamas to thwart US efforts for a Saudi normalization deal, which had been in progress before the October 7 invasion by Hamas.
