The Saudi-led coalition fighting Houthi rebels in Yemen intercepted a ballistic missile and 10 bomb-laden drones, according to the state-run Saudi Press Agency.
The Emiratis prevented Iranian-backed rebels, Houthis, from capturing Yemen's south during the civil war. Now, Houthis may have ended UAE's hopes of a return to business as usual.
Iran and Saudi Arabia are talking—but it might be too late to put the war-making djinn back in the bottle. Power-brokers in Yemen depend on violence to secure influence.
UAE defense ministry said that the attack did not result in any human losses and added the remnants of the destroyed ballistic missiles fell in separate areas around Abu Dhabi.
Six others were also injured in the rare attack inside the UAE that caused a fire at Abu Dhabi’s main international airport and set fuel tanks ablaze in a nearby industrial area.
The attacks in Saudi Arabia have sparked a discussion of how the US and its allies should retaliate, casting a pall over the fitful efforts at diplomacy.
President Donald Trump has boxed himself in with the Saudis and continues to blur the line between serving US national interest and his own self-interest.
Over generations, Bihar’s bane has been its utter lack of urbanisation. But now, even Bihar is urbanising. Or let’s say, rurbanising. Two decades under Nitish Kumar have created a new elite in its cities.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
