Yemen: Saudi lies are a cover for military and oil failures Yemen's Ministry of Foreign Affairs: The false claims of the Saudi regime about Yemen's attack on the holy places are made to cover up Saudi Arabia's gross failure to protect its vital facilities and oil. Heavy and humiliating failures of Saudi-affiliated mercenaries are other main reasons for designing these space structures. The Yemeni Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that these tricks could never achieve gains for Riyadh or realize its criminal goals.
