The Royal Saudi Air Force in action over North Yemen???
Sky News tickertape is quoting the Saudi 'Elaph' news agency stating that the Royal Saudi Air Force has bombed rebel stronghold targets in North Yemen.

I used to fly into Sanaa a few years ago & we'd watch these Fitters & Frogfoots launching full of weapons then the same aircraft would return an hour later empty.

Is this the same 'old' scuffle or the start of a new one?

Saudi border guard killed yesterday. I presume they are sending a strong message to the rebels so they wind their necks in in future.
