LOL, that had me confused bro. At first I thought the whole operation ended. It didn't make sense. :)

Go look at PDF Iranians are happy and boasting of victory already, lol. Little do they know it's next phase starting.

Do you really expect them to think military. Wait for the second phase to publish news and info and they will be like<)0(>

sad thing really ~-~ we will return to the boring days no more action (:-)
LOL TRUE
but there will still be operations. the only difference i guess is the number of sorties and its targets.
i think now they are forcing them for political talks.
and airstrike will now focus on the militias if they move or attack.

The first operation was called 3asefat Al hazm which means Storm of Resolve (not decisive) and this one has already been translated into "Operation Restoring Hope" and "Operation Renewal of Hope" and probably more names later. It's a mess lol, lost in translation.

The Saudi-led military coalition has completed operation "Decisive Storm" against Shia Houthi rebels in Yemen, a statement by Saudi military command cited by local media, says.

All goals set by the "Decisive Storm" operation have been achieved. These included the destruction of ballistic missiles the Houthis had taken control of. The decision to end the offensive comes following a request by the Yemeni government, according to the Saudi-led coalition spokesman.

The anti-Houthi campaign is now switching into a new phase codenamed "Restoring Hope", the statement said, as cited by Saudi-owned Arabiya TV. The Saudi Defense Ministry says it is going to focus on anti-terrorism, security and finding a political solution to the crisis.



This does not, however, mean a ceasefire will be declared.

"The coalition will continue to prevent the movement of Houthi militias from moving or undertaking any operations inside Yemen," Saudi spokesman Brigadier General Ahmed Asseri in the Saudi capital Riyadh. He added that the bombing operation will resume if it is deemed necessary.

The announcement about the operation wrapping up comes hours after Saudi Arabia's King Salman ordered the country's National Guard to reinforce the border with Yemen.

Before that, only the navy, air and ground forces were involved in the operation, the latter's involvement limited to controlling the border. The National Guard is widely seen as the best equipped force at Saudi Arabia's disposal and answers to its own ministry separate from the Ministry of Defense.

Saudi Arabia and its allies have been engaged in a campaign of airstrikes and a naval blockade of Yemen, targeting anti-government Houthi rebels.

The Houthis had seized control of the capital Sanaa, driving Yemen's President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi into hiding in Saudi Arabia, and advanced on the major port city of Aden.


Washington revealed on Monday it would be sending two more warships into waters off Yemen, to bolster its force there. The Pentagon said the vessels are conducting routine "maritime security operations". The US is assisting Saudi Arabia, but not taking part in the anti-Houthi campaign directly.

At least 944 people have been killed and 3,487 injured during the month-long conflict in Yemen, World Health Organization reported Tuesday.
