Oman declares a no-fly zone over its territory for all military aircraft involved in operations against Yemen
Oman sided with Yemen by declaring a no-fly zone over its territory for all military aircraft involved in operations against Yemen.The second question is the respect for the no-fly zone.t.me/zoka200
" Siding with Yemen " is a bit rich. The writing is on the wall for the current regional war to expand into a proper world war. They don't want their infrastructure, be it shipping or oil related to be hit by missles.
It's one thing to carry out an air campaign halfway across the earth where your enemy cannot reach your homeland. It's a bit different when the war is in your backyard and not on the television.
Same reason why Saudi Arabia is so squeamish about this whole air raid campaign. Both nations host American bases and troops. They are the logical first targets for the Houthi's to attack. Signing off on this would be stepping foot into the ring as a meatshield, with little to gain from this charade.
Yemen has already been bombed back into the stone ages, infrastructure wise. More airstrikes will not break them.

Houthis just don't have means to do that. Iran is friendly with both them and Oman. Oman doesn't have a history of declaring war or threats over something, so they proclaimed their ultimate neutrality - and blocked access to it's airspace.

Official Yemen wasn't bombed. What was is a territory held by the Houthy junta. It's not better or worse than an official dictator. It's just incorrect to miss that distinction.
And I don't think they would be capable of anything military-wise after these strikes.
They just don't have any serious backing even from other islamic states, so I don't know why they even acted out for western allies can simply erase everything they have without any backfiring.
I feel like it's other states who ordered their leaders to act, while these leaders are completely safe.
Oh good, it’s escalating. /s
Good on Oman.
how are they going to enforce that?
The government of Oman represents me
Good guy Oman
