Saudi Arabia launched military strikes against Yemens defense ministry in the capital city of Sanaa in the latest escalation in the conflict between the two Arab nations, witnesses told the French news agency AFP.
It wasnt immediately clear if the attacks were air or missile strikes, but they came following reports that Iran had manufactured the ballistic missile fired by Yemens Shiite rebels toward the Saudi capital a week ago.
Remnants of the missile bore Iranian markings, the top US Air Force official in the Mideast said Friday, backing the kingdoms earlier allegations.
Saudi Arabia long has accused Iran of giving weapons to the Shiite rebels known as Houthis and their allies, though Tehran has just as long denied supplying them.
Saudi Arabia says it shot down the missile Nov. 4 near Riyadhs international airport, the deepest yet to reach into the kingdom.
Saudi Arabias Foreign Ministry later said investigators examining the remains of the rocket found evidence proving the role of Iranian regime in manufacturing them.

Go Prince, Go. Kick some Houthi and Hezbollah arse.
Hoo-boy, now it begins.
And so it begins . . . . . . .
Are the Saudis attacking Lebanon or Yemen? Both? More?
The Saudis have a lot of weapons, but I don’t know how many Saudi men want to stand on the front lines.
I expected this or something like it. The majority of Arab countries have told their citizens in Lebanon to leave. Immediately.
***Saudi*** boys will go down there and take care of biz..?!
NO WAY..!
Come on..! They’ll be Peruvian, or Columbian, or Pakistanis.
“Let THE OTHERS do the dying...!” is mostly the attitude.
Saudis sit around in offices all day, or crash ricer cars.
but I dont know how many Saudi men want to stand on the front lines.

PING
Let the games begin!!
Kick their obama azzes, Prince Mohammed bin Salman!
I expected this or something like it. The majority of Arab countries have told their citizens in Lebanon to leave. Immediately.
Both...
The word on the Interne is that Lebanon will be the next Syria.
Although it will be Hezbollah vs. Israel. Saudi Arabia will be mixed up in it and ditto Iran, Syria, Russia and Turkey.
Don’t be surprised if a new U.S. Air Base pops up in Israel.
They shoulda hit Tehran or Qom.
I would not be surprised if that eventually happens.
Although I hope both sides are not suicidal. Given that both sides have nukes.
Nothing would make me happier then all out war between the Sunni’s and Shia. We should follow Trumans suggestion about Germany and the Soviet Union...
Somehow lost in the media presentation, who is the Houthi’s main rival in Yemen?
=> ISIS
Syria revolution redux.
May both sides enjoy great success.
And so it begins.
