Saudi Arabia says drone interception leaves two injured near Riyadh

A drone interception left two people injured in a Saudi region southeast of the capital Riyadh, the country's civil defence said on Tuesday.

"Falling debris from the interception of a drone in Al-Kharj province caused two minor injuries and limited material damage to three homes and several vehicles," said a statement carried by Saudi Arabia's official SPA news agency.

Al-Kharj province is home to the Prince Sultan airbase.
