The military exercise of the United Arab Emirates under the name "Desert Flag" began with the participation of #Turkey, #SaudiArabia, #Oman, #Kuwait, #US, #SouthKorea, #France, #UK and #Germany.
#Quote #SaudiArabia has been forced to scale back its $1.5trillion plans for a 106-mile linear desert megacity, according to reports, in a humiliating climb down for the kingdom.
The Line - part of the country's audacious and futuristic NEOM project - was meant to be home to around 1.5 million residents by the end of the decade, with plans to ultimately increase its full capacity to nine million people.
Now, according to people familiar with the project, the development will only stretch 1.5 miles and house fewer than 300,000 residents by 2030, according to a new report from Bloomberg citing sources close to the project and documents.

French President Emmanuel Macron announced this at a press conference.
#Macron said his country would stop supplying shells and artillery systems to #Qatar and #SaudiArabia to focus on supporting Ukraine.
It's going to be a disaster for the environment of the red sea and the coastal lines of north east Africa and Arabian peninsula.
This bloody war is unnecessary and doesn't have any positive outcome for anyone.
All because of blind support of the genocodal maniacs in Tel Aviv and their lap dogs in Washington and London.

🗓 By morning, more detailed data appeared about the massive 👉 night attack of coalition forces on targets of the Ansarallah group as part of Operation Poseidon Archer.
▪️ The Houthi press service said that a total of 48 missile strikes were carried out, most of which fell on the provinces of Sana'a, Taiz and Al-Hodeidah. Al-Bayda, Al-Hijjah and Al-Saada were also affected.
▪️ This correlates with nightly information from local Yemeni sources, who named in detail the settlements in which missile arrivals were noted.
🔹 The coalition mainly used Tomahawk sea-based cruise missiles (about 30), as well as F/A-18E/F and FGr.4 Typhoon carrier-based aircraft from #Akrotiri.
❗️However, as before, despite the massive nature of the attacks, the targets were not chosen very selectively. The territories of former military units and port facilities came under attack again.
🔹 Not any significant damage was confirmed by the Houthi retaliatory attack. There are no details yet, but the launch of two ballistic missiles from #Yemen was recorded.
📌 Some media outlets started talking about the defeat of an #US F-35 fighter, which allegedly crashed in #SaudiArabia, but the point is that the F-35s did not fly to #US military bases in the #MiddleEast, and they did not participate in the attack on #Yemen.
Those guys cost a shit load of money, and guess who is paying?

Currently, Oman has closed its airspace to aircraft from the countries of the anti-Houthi coalition, which also includes the #UnitedStates, #Britain, #Australia, the #Netherlands and a number of other countries.
What is interesting is that Oman has long-standing military-political relations with Britain and the United States, but nevertheless did not support the operation, unlike Bahrain, which made its military bases and airfields available to the troops of the anti-Houthi coalition .
