Missile strike in Riyadh: Did "Patriots" fail to defend?

In Yemen, Patriot systems have been criticized for failing to prevent rocket attacks by Houthi rebels against Saudi Arabia.

Axar.az reports that an unnamed activist and blogger shared this on his Twitter microblog.

"The Saudi state news agency deleted the image of a ballistic missile colliding in the skies of Riyadh on Twitter. In those images, it turned out that the US-made Patriots could not block the missiles," said the blogger.

It should be noted that the Houthis fired rockets at Riyadh and Jizan yesterday. Al-Arabiya said both missiles had been neutralized.
