Saudi Arabia’s Capital Rocked By Ballistic Missile Strike
Saudi Arabia’s capital Riyadh was rocked by an unexpected surface-t0-surface ballistic missile launched by the Yemeni military in retaliation for relentless and ongoing Saudi-U.S. incursions into their country. Yemen made the announcement of their first ever attack on the capital of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in a statement released by the official state news agency on Sunday. In the statement, they claimed that the missile, believed to be variant of a Russian scud known as the “Borkan”, had been launched at a Saudi military base located in the west of the capital Riyadh in retaliation for Saudi Arabia’s relentless US-backed war with their country. The statement also pointed out that Saudi Arabia’s oil fields are well within the range of Yemen’s ballistic missiles – and they are prepared to use them. Middle East in flames Saudi officials have not made any comments on the reports yet, or announced casualty figures, amid claims on social media that the Kingdom may be trying to cover up the successful missile strike on their previously untouchable capital. Saudi citizen reports that the explosion sound of the Yemeni missile was just like an earthquake or a falling meteor.#LMAO. https://t.co/QGoLSgajso — Majd Fahd (@Syria_Protector) February 5, 2017 However Riyadh [...]
