(MENAFN) Residents of Riyadh were jolted by an emergency alert on Monday after Saudi Arabia’s Civil Defense briefly triggered a warning over a potential danger in the capital, before declaring that the threat had passed.

The warning went out through the National Early Warning Platform, urging people in the city to take precautions. A follow-up notification from the agency soon confirmed the danger was over.

Officials gave no immediate explanation of what prompted the alert.

The incident unfolded against a backdrop of intensifying military confrontation between the Saudi-led coalition backing Yemen’s internationally recognized government and the Houthi group. The Houthis have repeatedly fired missiles and drones toward Saudi territory.
