At least one Saudi trooper has been killed in a retaliatory shelling attack by Yemeni army soldiers and allied forces against a border guard station in the kingdom’s southwestern border region of Jizan.
An unnamed spokesman for Saudi Arabia’s Interior Ministry announced on Wednesday that the border guard was killed on Tuesday afternoon after “heavy firing from inside Yemeni territory” targeted the station in the southern al-Harath district of Jizan.
The official identified the guard as Ali bin Mohammed Yahya Sharahili, but did not provide any further details about the extent of damage and other possible casualties.
The development came on the same day that Yemeni army soldiers, backed by fighters from Popular Committees, targeted two Saudi troopers in al-Tabba Ramazeh military camp in Jizan.
