| [ALMANAR.LB] Yemeni tribal fighters attacked on Tuesday Saudi border military posts, killing 12 soldiers and destroying their vehicles and equipment. The corpses were left at the posts as the remaining Saudi soldiers fled the area. In a different context, the Saudi al-Riyadh newspaper confirmed that 6 shells targeted on Tuesday the city of Najran in KSA, which disrupted the electric power and the aviation movement in the area.
In a statement on Twitter, Saudi Airlines announced that "all our flights from and to Najran were suspended today until further notice." Al-Ekhbariya reported that schools had been closed in the city. "Air and ground forces will respond in the right way to these hazardous acts and will not allow them to be repeated," Assiri said. The Saudi military had already deployed Apache combat helicopters to target the rebels in the border area, he added. | |
