This Yemen campaign was with the US's blessings, and they were providing intel and logistics like air refueling.
They do have a half a dozen A330 MRTT, but they are no using them, it is the US that are doing the refuelling...Not the Sauds nor the UAE..

UAE fighter jets continue attack on Houthi strongholds in Yemen - in pictures
UAE fighter jets continued their air strikes against Houthi strongholds on Tuesday. The strikes were part of Operation Al Hazm Storm, launched by the Saudi-led Arab coalition of 10 nations to reinstate legitimacy in Yemen.
The air strikes targeted weapons and radar depots as well as mountain tunnels meant for storing arms. During the mission, the jets conducted air refuelling from the Airbus planes of the Air Force and Air Defence.
All fighter jets returned to their bases safely.
