Military analyst: Sanaa missiles force Riyadh to reconsider its military

SANAA, June 25 (YPA) – Mamoun Abu-Nowar, a retired Jordanian air force general said on Tuesday that the missiles fired by Sanaa forces on Riyadh were necessary for Riyadh to review its military coalition.

Maamoun Abu Nowar told Al-Jazeera that the missiles launched from Yemen were far enough to make Saudi Arabia insecure its military coalition war on that has been waging since five years.

“Reaching Riyadh with such precision and targeting the Ministry of Defense and some other military bases and sites is a major escalation,” he said. The Houthis are making gains on the ground in Jawf in eastern Yemen and in some parts of Yemen.”

He added: This makes Saudi Arabia unsafe and unstable for any future investment, a major threat to the Saudi air defense system, which I feel is a little weak to intercept such missiles.”

On Tuesday, the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out its largest military operation yet, which targeted the capital of the Saudi enemy with a large number of ballistic and winged missiles, as well as drone aircraft.

The Yemeni army spokesman said that the attack was carried out by several winged missiles of the Quds type and a long-range ballistic missile of the Thulfiqar type, and Samad-3 drones. The retaliatory strike targets military headquarters and centers in Riyadh, the Saudi capital, including the Ministry of Defence and Intelligence and the Salman Air Base, as well as military positions in Jizan and Najran.
