Saudi aircraft had targeted strongholds of the Houthi rebels on the Yemeni side of border, spokesmen for the group and Arab media said.
A Saudi official told Reuters they had hit rebels occupying its territory.
The attacks came after a Saudi officer was killed and 11 were wounded in a raid by the rebels on the Jizan region.
The Houthis said on Wednesday that they had taken "full control" of a mountainous section of the border region of Jabal al-Dukhan.

How brave! Using jets against civilians...
IMHO, such actions are nice advertisements for terrorist clubs. You can't wish a better campaign to increase your numbers.
Didn't Saddam do something like this once... Of course, it is different when our friends do it right?
Yeah, difference is that Saddam used gas and he killed tens of thousands of innocent civillians in his own country. At least the Saudis were getting back at a terrorist group/militia which was attacking its people.
