Updated On:Thu, 12 Nov 2026 09:25:02 PKTSaudi Arabia says debris from intercepted missiles falls in Makkah region. Saudi Arabia said debris from two ballistic missiles intercepted by its air defences fell in the Makkah ‌region on Wednesday, as the kingdom and Yemen's Houthis continued to trade attacks in an escalating conflict.

Saudi state television identified the locations as Sabuhah village, about 35 km (22 miles) northeast of the Grand Mosque in Makkah, and Wadi al-Maghmas, about 21 km east of the mosque. The missiles were launched towards the region and intercepted and destroyed, Saudi Arabia's civil defence said in a statement.

The Houthis have repeatedly denied Saudi accusations that they target Makkah and Medina, Islam's two holiest cities, saying their military operations are directed at military and strategic targets elsewhere in Saudi Arabia.

Makkah, home to sites sacred to Muslims worldwide, is the focal point of the annual hajj pilgrimage, one of the five pillars of Islam, which ‌millions of Muslims undertake each year.

"This hostile targeting of civilian objects constitutes a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law and reflects the dangerous hostile approach pursued by the Houthi militia," Saudi Arabia's civil defence said early on Thursday.

The OPEC+ group, which includes the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies such as Russia, pumped 41.23 million barrels per day in October, OPEC said in a monthly report on Wednesday, up about 2.04 million bpd from September.

The figures, based on secondary sources, add to signs that Gulf oil producers are recovering exports by using workarounds such as ship-to-ship transfers to bypass disruption caused by the conflict. OPEC data, October output was equivalent to 97% of the 42.72 million bpd produced by OPEC+ in February.
