Saudi soldier dies from mine blast on Yemen border
Riyadh : A Saudi soldier has died from injuries sustained in a land mine blast on the border with Yemen, where the kingdom leads a coalition fighting rebels.
The border guards corporal died in hospital after the explosion in Jazan province, the interior ministry said late on Thursday.
At least 114 Saudis have died along the frontier since the coalition launched its intervention in Yemen almost two years ago, most of them in firefights or rocket strikes by the rebels.
The coalition has previously said the Huthi rebels have laid mines along the border.
