2 Saudi guards killed in Yemen border attack

Two Saudi soldiers have been killed in a clash with unidentified gunmen who fired on them from across the border with Yemen, the interior ministry said Thursday.

A border guard patrol in the southwestern province of Asir âcame under heavy gunfire on Wednesday morning from unknown sources inside Yemeni territory,â said the ministry. The attack triggered a gun battle which resulted in the death of sergeant Abdulrazaq al-Qhamidi and soldier Mohammed al-Qahtani, it said in a statement.

The Saudi authorities were coordinating with their counterparts in Yemen to investigate the attack.
