While the Yemeni government may declare that no Saudi air attacks have taken place, eye-witness reports by Saudi media contradict the claim.

Yemen, which had been on the way to becoming a member of the Gulf Cooperative Council (GCC) is now on the wrong end of the argument. The GCC says it is standing in solidarity with Saudi Arabia and deems an attack on the Kingdom to be an attack on the GCC. The Gulf State governments have tools beyond military weaponry to punish Yemen’s government—like deporting the millions of Yemeni workers in the Gulf. That, however, is unlikely to resolve what’s turning into a full-out civil war in the country.

Yemeni insurgents hit hard

JAZAN: Defense Ministry in Sanaa denied on Thursday Saudi jets hit rebels inside Yemen’s territory.

Al Arabiya news channel in its report said Saudi military jets pounded Houthi rebel bases along the Yemeni border on Thursday in response to an attack by Yemeni insurgents on a border post in Jazan that killed a Saudi border guard.

Jets have been targeting rebel positions near the border with southern Jazan province since Wednesday, the news channel said. “They’ve been hit hard and it’s ongoing.” The operation is a sustained action and could involve a ground assault to “clean out” rebel camps in coordination with Yemen authorities, it added.

As the operation continued, the six-member Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) denounced the Houthi attacks. “Any move to undermine Saudi Arabia’s security would be considered an attack on GCC security,” said GCC Secretary-General Abdul Rahman Al-Attiyah.
