Two Saudi soldiers have been killed in a clash with unidentified gunmen who fired on them from across the border with Yemen, the interior ministry said Thursday. A border guard patrol in the southwestern province of Asir âcame under heavy gunfire on Wednesday morning from unknown sources inside Yemeni territory,â said the ministry. The attack triggered a gun battle which resulted in the death of sergeant Abdulrazaq al-Qhamidi and soldier Mohammed al-Qahtani, it said in a statement. The Saudi authorities were coordinating with their counterparts in Yemen to investigate the attack. Posted by: Steve White 2014-04-12 |
