On 30 October, the Saudi Press Agency reported that coalition spokesperson Turki al-Maliki said a UAV launched by Ansar Allah had been intercepted and destroyed in Makkah Region. In a later report published at 06:12 UTC, Reuters reported Yemeni Armed Forces spokesperson Yahya Saree’s denial that Yemeni forces had conducted an operation toward Saudi territory; he called the coalition account false and said their operations target Saudi oil facilities and military bases. The competing statements have not been independently resolved. The interception remains an attributed coalition claim, not an independently established fact.
