The channel reported in its context that a source in the Saudi royal family did not deny Riyadh’s contribution to thwarting the Iranian attack on Israel in its conversation with the channel.
According to the source’s information to the channel, any suspected flying object penetrating Saudi airspace is shot down as a matter of sovereignty.
