FILE - In this March 11, 2021 file photo, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaks during his meeting with the prime minister of Hungary, Viktor Orbán and Prime Minister of the Czech Republic, Andrej Babis in Jerusalem. Netanyahu said Saturday, March 13, 2021, that he was deterred from flying to the United Arab Emirates through Saudi Arabian airspace last week because of the threat of missile fire from Iranian proxies in Yemen.
JERUSALEM — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was deterred from flying to the United Arab Emirates through Saudi Arabian airspace last week because of the threat of missile fire from Iranian proxies in Yemen. But rather than bypass Jordanian airspace and take a more southerly route across Saudi skies, Netanyahu told Israel’s Channel 13 “there were also problems a week ago in the skies of Saudi Arabia,” referring to recent missile attacks by Yemen’s Houthi rebels.Netanyahu did not elaborate, nor did he say his plane was targeted by the Iran-backed Houthis.
Last week, missiles and drones hit one of the world’s largest oil shipping ports and halted air traffic toward the international airport in the port city of Jiddah. While Houthi-claimed attacks on Saudi Arabia rarely cause substantial damage, such strikes have roiled the world economy and raise the risk of a disruption in global oil supplies.
Really?
Excuses 🤷♂️
That's too bad. Would've been great to read a different headline.
Is this man ever going to face justice is a court of law? Israel must have the most dysfunctional criminal justice system on the planet.
The only destination he should fly to is jail for corruption…
