Early in the morning, a C-130E transport plane of the Pakistan Air Force took off from the Hamis Mushait base, located near the border with Yemen. He had arrived there earlier from Dammam Air Base. The movement of a transport aircraft may be related to the transfer of personnel, military equipment, ammunition or logistical support for the Pakistan Air Force. There are also Pakistani fighters at Hamis Mushait Air Base, which makes the flight of particular importance in the context of possibly ensuring their operation and combat readiness. However, no data was released on the cargo, the number of people being transported or the specific purpose of the flight.
