Operation 'Decisive Storm' | Saudi lead coalition operations in Yemen - Updates & Discussions.

Nops. If there is an involvement of Pakistan, it would most likely be confined to the Army deployment inside KSA. PAF sending assets may not be required as GCCs have already mounted ~150 air assets. However, things will clear up after the Joint session.

Thanks for clearing that confusion up; however, doesn't KSA also have sufficient ground assets they can deploy to the region? By the same token, wouldn't PAF's commitment also be a message of friendship it can send to the GCC?

I personally think they have. And the plan also seems to help Hadi's forces to maintain Aden while striking Hauties all around to weaken their military infrastructure. 150 planes are more than sufficient for 24/7 strikes on Hauties. PAF may send a some people but given the GCCs already has sufficient numbers on the ground, it would add little value.

It (the military contribution) may not be much on a technical basis, but the symbolic undertones it brings would be dramatically conducive towards relations with the GCC and Sunnis in general.

It might be. But in the end it rests with the military planners to do what they think is suitable.

This is where you learnt that sick sadistic practise. You two have alot in common nowadays.
at least we dont kill civilians like them and like your army.
and just before you get excited and show me civilian casualties in yemen. all those casualties are result of houthi and ali abdullah saleh bombing the cities randomly with mortar rounds.
and regarding this pic. it was an emarati operation that had the name of the saudi border security who got killed. the whole operation is with his name including the emarati F-16. and they targeted weapon and missile storage. thats the video of the operation. so cut the crap.

India evacuates 1,200 nationals, also helps Bangladeshis, Pakistanis stuck in Yemen | Zee News

Last Updated: Sunday, April 5, 2015 - 04:23

New Delhi: India evacuated 439 of its citizens in Aden, carefully ferrying them in small batches onto the Indian Navy ship INS Mumbai that was anchored off the coast amidst heavy shelling.


Over 1,200 Indians were evacuated from Yemen on Saturday by air and by sea, adding to the around 1,000 Indians who have arrived back in India so far, the government said.

India has also helped pull out nationals from Bangladesh, Djibouti, Nepal, Pakistan and Uganda, tweeted External Affairs inistry spokesperson Syed Akbaruddin

He earlier said: “Even as we evacuated 1,800 of our citizens from Yemen we also helped some from Bangladesh, Djibouti, Nepal, Pakistan and Uganda so far.”

He added that in the morning 322 Indians were evacuated by air from Yemen, while more than 370 nationals were pulled out by sea in the afternoon.

Over 300 Indian evacuated from Yemen are to reach Kochi late on Saturday.

He said 978 Indians were evacuated in the last four days. The figure did not include the Indians who were expected to land in Kochi late on Saturday.

Two Indian Air Force flights carrying 334 Indian nationals evacuated from Yemen had landed in Mumbai on Friday night.

A total of 330 Indians had arrived on an Air India flight in Kochi early on Saturday.

Yemen has been engulfed in strife, as Shia Houthi rebels continued their advance against exiled president Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi's loyalists who are being supported by Saudi Arabia-led air strikes.

With the violence increasing, India on Friday stepped up its evacuation. India began evacuating its nationals by air from Sana'a as two Air India flights took off with 351 Indians to Djibouti.

Shia rebels free more than 300 prisoners in the southern city of Dhale - The Hindu
Shia rebels freed more than 300 prisoners in the southern city of Dhale, Yemeni security officials said, s the rebels fought pitched battles with supporters of the country’s beleaguered President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi in the southern port city of Aden.

The Shia rebels, known as Huthis, have been trying to take control of Dhale in order to open up a corridor to Aden, a stronghold for Hadi loyalists. Since their advance began last year, the Huthis have overrun Yemen’s capital, Sana’a, and several provinces, forcing Mr. Hadi to flee the country.

The officials said that after the Huthi fighters took control of Dhale’s central prison, they gave inmates a choice between joining their ranks and remaining incarcerated.

It will be more fun when your parliament vote in favor of Saudi Arabia. This will definitely prove that your likes are indeed a minority in Pakistan as the parliaments are representatives of Pakistani people. Let's see..
 
It seems the Houthis are back in Aden, after being pushed back yesterday,

(Reuters) - Yemen's Houthi militiamen, supported by army units, gained ground in the southern city of Aden on Sunday, pushing back loyalists of the Saudi-backed President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
 
Saudi to raze empty villages on Yemen border: report
Last Updated On 05 April,2015 About 3 minutes ago
RIYADH (AFP) - Saudi Arabia will raze 96 deserted border villages to prevent their use by infiltrators from neighbouring Yemen, where the kingdom is leading air strikes on rebels, a report said Sunday.

Ten villages have already been demolished since a Saudi-led military coalition began air strikes on Shiite Huthi rebels on March 26, the Saudi-owned Al-Hayat newspaper reported.

It cited the border guard chief in the area, Hassan Aqili, as saying that the move was to prevent the empty houses from turning into "a safe haven for traffickers and infiltrators".

The 15,000 inhabitants were resettled following a 2009-2010 conflict that saw Huthi rebels cross into Saudi Arabia from their stronghold in northern Yemen.

The same rebels forced Yemeni President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi to flee the country to Saudi Arabia last month as they swept towards his southern refuge in Aden after seizing power in the capital.

Three Saudi border guards have been shot dead by gunfire from within Yemen since Riyadh launched air raids against the Iran-backed rebels.

Vast majority of Pakistanis are against this and so are all the opposition political parties something which is alien to Jordan and KSA. Your mess you sort it out. Blackpigeon words can't describe your ignorance, you make yourself look bad with each post.

“The government has been taken aback by the unprecedented public and media pressure against joining the Yemen war. Moreover, the meeting was briefed that the media pressure was so enormous that even the right-wing religious outfits were also reluctant in supporting the government in this regard,

I don't believe you. The only way here to believe you is to replace the word "Pakistanis" with "Iranians". Anyway, as I told you, we will see if the representatives of Pakistani people will be with or against Decisive Storm.

I guess that's another Al Arabiya news that only Al Arabiya reports and no other reputable media in the world knows about it.

Saudi Arabia has documented more than 600 cases of Houthi incursions along the Saudi-Yemeni border since the beginning of Operation Decisive Storm until Friday.

Despite the difficult terrain, there is night surveillance by Border Guard. This surveillance enables the Saudis to use appropriate force to attack the Houthi positions and prevent incursions into Saudi territory.

Brig. Gen. Ahmad Al-Assiri, consultant at the minister of defense’s office, said that coalition forces had attacked the Houthis south of the Saudi border since the start of the military operation.

Lt. Hassan Aqeeli, head of the Border Guard in Jazan, said there were three methods of border surveillance. One is using surveillance towers. There is mobile surveillance carried out by special vehicles in certain areas and there are instruments carried by soldiers as they move around.

Aqeeli said the systems provided the Border Guard with the ability to monitor movements on both sides of the border and gave soldiers the means to detect any incursion.

“The Border Guard are on duty 24/7 in very rough and difficult terrain,” he added.

Yemen rebel attack forces Aden TV off air | Zee News

Aden: Yemeni rebels fired mortar rounds Sunday at a television station loyal to President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi in the southern city of Aden, forcing it off the air, an official said.

The Aden TV building was "damaged but there were no casualties", the official at the government-run channel told AFP.

The attack came as battles raged between rebel forces and pro-Hadi militia in the Aden districts of Mualla and Qalwa`a, leaving at least five civilians dead and 14 wounded, according to the city`s health department director Al-Kheder Lassouar.

"There are children among the wounded," he said.

The Iran-backed rebels gained ground Sunday in Aden, which is among the last remaining footholds of Hadi supporters, even as a Riyadh-led coalition pounded their positions across Yemen.

Hadi took refuge in Aden after the Shiite Huthi rebels seized power in the capital Sanaa in February, but he fled to Saudi Arabia last month as the rebels approached the port city.
