Saudi Arabia Intercepts 37 Iranian Drones in Eastern Region

Saudi Arabia's air defense forces intercepted 37 Iranian drones over the Eastern Province, the kingdom's oil-rich region home to Aramco's key infrastructure. All were intercepted before reaching targets. The barrage is one of the largest single drone waves targeting Saudi Arabia since the conflict began. The Saudi Civil Defense Agency confirmed no casualties or infrastructure damage. Separately, Bahrain and Kuwait also reported overnight interceptions. The persistent drone pressure on Gulf states continues despite US and Gulf reassurances that Iran's strike capacity is degraded. Aramco and Saudi Electricity Company infrastructure remain on high alert.
