Saudi-UAE hopes of a quick victory in Yemen is an illusion: Lawfare blog

SANAA, July 23 (YPA) –  The US Lawfare Institute revealed that the Saudi-led coalition conducted 100,000 air strikes on Yemen since its military campaign began.

According to a report published by Lawfare’s blog, it said that Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates Have a Disastrous Yemen Strategy.

It also confirmed that the Saudi and Emirati intervention failed on its own terms. They are caught in the Yemeni quagmire.

Saudi hopes of a quick victory, like most of their hopes for Yemen, proved an illusion, the report added.

More than three years later, Riyadh has flown more than 100,000 sorties and spends billions a month on the war. Airstrikes managed to destroy much of Yemen’s already-tottering infrastructure and kill thousands of civilians, the report added.
