Saudi Warplanes Drop Cluster Bombs on Own Soil to Prevent Yemeni Forces' Advances
TEHRAN
(FNA)- Saudi Arabia's warplanes are targeting the Southern parts of the
kingdom with cluster bombs in a bid to stop the Yemeni army and popular
forces' continued and rapid advance deep into their territories.
Saudi
Arabia has used cluster bombs many times before, but this is the first
time that it is using it against its own population in a desperate move
to stop the huge advances made by the Yemeni forces inside the kingdom
in recent days.
The Yemeni army and popular
forces have frequently crossed the border captured the Saudi military
bases and outpost, ruined the military sites and returned home in the
last few months and after the Riyadh-led coalition refrained from
stopping its air raids on residential areas in Yemen's cities.
But,
after months of coalition intensified air raids on civilian areas, the
Yemeni forces changed strategy and warned that they would start ground
assaults on Saudi territories to force Riyadh stop the massacre.
The
new strategy was put into effect on Sunday, when Yemen's army and
popular forces crossed the border and captured several key military
bases in three provinces in Southern Saudi Arabia near the border.
The
Yemeni forces seized Malhama, al-Radif and al-Mamoud military bases in
Jizan, al-Rabou'a military base in Asir and Nahouqa military base in
Najran provinces.
Then on Monday, the Yemeni forces took control of three more Saudi military bases in al-Shurfa region in Najran.
They also captured a military camp in Najran, and destroyed the military vehicles in there.
