2 Saudi soldiers killed patrolling Yemen border

Two Saudi soldiers were killed Thursday (April 27th) in a rocket attack near the border with Yemen, AFP reported.

They died in a simultaneous landmine explosion and rocket attack while on duty patrolling the border around Jazan, the Interior Ministry said in a statement carried by the official SPA news agency.

On Wednesday, Riyadh said it had intercepted a boat rigged with explosives that was sent by Yemen's Houthis (Ansarallah) to target an Aramco oil distribution platform in the south-western Jazan region.
