The Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen has said it will present Sunday “evidence” of involvement of Lebanon’s Hizbullah in Yemen and its use of Sanaa airport to “target the kingdom.”
Saudi Arabia has long accused Iran of supplying Yemen’s Huthis with sophisticated weapons and Hizbullah of training the insurgents, charges the Islamic republic denies.
The Saudi ambassador to Yemen, Mohammed Al Jaber, charged that the rebels were using Iranian weapons to target the kingdom, which likens the Huthis to a Hizbullah-like force in its backyard.
“Using an Iranian weapon launched from Yemen, the Huthi militia killed two civilians… another criminal and terrorist act,” he tweeted Saturday.
