Explosions were reported in the Saudi capital of Riyadh on Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2026, according to Xinhua media reports. The Saudi‑led coalition said its air defences intercepted and destroyed two ballistic missiles launched by the Yemeni Houthi group toward the city amid ongoing attacks from Yemen.
While media outlets confirmed that explosions were heard, the Saudi authorities have not specified whether the blasts were caused by the missile interceptions themselves or by another event. The Xinhua article notes that it remains unclear if the explosions were the result of the defensive actions.
