Saudi-led coalition to pay $5 billion for Israel to help attack on Yemen’s Hodeidah port

SANAA, June 12 (YPA) – Saudi-led coalition is to pay five billion dollar for Israel for taking part in an imminent attack led by the coalition on Yemen’s Red Sea port city of Hodeidah, officials familiar with the issue told Yemen Press Agency on Monday.

The move came after the Yemeni army defeated the coalition forces and their militias in fierce battles over the past days, killing hundreds and destroying dozens of military equipment in the western coast.

The officials said Israeli war planes carrying cargoes of modern weapons and Israeli fighter jets have landed at Saudi Khamis Mushayt military base over the past few days to take part in the assault.
