The raids on the Yemeni capital, Sana’a, targeted military camps, as well as Houthi rebel facilities near the city’s airport and in its suburbs, residents and rebel-run Al-Masirah TV said. A separate strike hit a rebel target in the port province of Hodeidah.
The Iran-backed Houthis attacked a Saudi Aramco oil refinery in Riyadh on Friday with six bomb-laden drones. The assault caused a fire that was later controlled with no impact on oil supplies or derivatives, state-run media said. No casualties were reported.

The’re using the weapons we sold them to slaughter them. bad for Iran. Should we care?
Sheba and Dedan will protest Persia’s attack on Israel in Ezekiel 38

No.
Saudi pilots could bomb the desert and manage to miss the sand.
It’s complicated
Hezbollah ...Iran proxy army ..protects Christians in the Syrian civil war more than anyone
Nearly all the 9-11 hijacksrs were Saudi
Nearly all Osama support was from sunni Saudi fundies
Bush protects them and sealed info we still don’t have out
See what I mean
Deep State hates Iran.....
It’s not binary as they say
Man for man, one Houthi is worth 12 Saudi soldiers.
I know you and/or your handlers are just itching to commit our boys and girls in another useless Middle East adventure just to show how compassionate you are for whatever rebels.
Pres. Trump brought the UAE, Bahrain, Sudan, Morocco to the table to normalize relations with Israel, with Saudi Arabia, Mauritania, Oman and Indonesia looking to join. THIS IS HISTORIC! No other American President has been able to get this far for peace between the Arabs and Israel.
I'll be surprised if there is not a defense alliance formed between Israel and these and other Arab nations to combat Iran's regional ambitions.
Don’t the Saudis want the Deep Water Port at Aden, too?
*** Hey Biteme, look a civil war you can get involved in ***
The US has been involved in the destruction of Yemen long before the current Administration.
Apparently, you know more than I. I haven't followed Yemen.
It started after the Iranians smuggled weapons to the Houthis in Yemen years ago.
Before that there were two Yemens- one was a Soviet client state and the communists had control.
Okay, so how does that make the US bad guys in that civil war? Please explain.
Obama’s war.
Sounds like Fedeykin vs. Sardukar out of Dune.
irrelevancy
The Yemen rebels are a proxy for Iran, and Iran and the Saudis are battling for hegemony in the Middle East.
Both regimes are horror shows, of course.
The US remains tied to the Nixon petrodollar policy (where the Saudis agreed to accept payment for their oil in dollars)—and given the insane national debt these days—this has created a situation where the entire world economy’s survival requires the US kissing the ring of the Saudis.
That is why Bidet’s moral outrage at the Saudi royal family is laughable—there is _nothing_ he can do about it.
Good!
we’r not there yet or even close.
