Saudi jets launched air strikes on Tuesday against Houthi militiamen close to the kingdom’s southern border with Yemen, after a series of deadly incursions the previous day.
Al Arabiya reported that “tens of Houthi” fighters were killed in the aerial attacks.
The bombing raids came after Houthi fighters managed to cross the border into the Saudi border province of Najran on Monday and kill five Saudi border guards.
A video posted to YouTube claimed to show a Saudi military vehicle being blown up as it hit a Houthi-laid explosive device on a road in the province.
