Yemeni Army Fires Ballistic Missile on Saudi Military Base
2015-08-21
[ALMANAR.LB] Yemeni army, backed by Popular Committees, fired a Tochka ballistic missile on a Saudi naval base in the border area of Jizan.
Tochka = SS-21 Scarab, replacement for the FROG.
Field sources said that the army and the committees fired the ballistic missile on al-Wajeb naval force, the biggest military base in the border area with Yemen.
With, I'm guessing, little practical effect.
Meanwhile,
...back at the laboratory the smoke and fumes had dispersed, to reveal an ominous sight...
the allied forces managed to fully control Tuwaileq height, which also lies in Jizan, the sources reported. The height is one of the major centers where Saudi border guards are positioned.
