Saudi Arabia Conducted Covert Airstrikes Inside Iran in March

Saudi Arabia conducted covert airstrikes inside Iran in late March as a retaliatory measure following attacks on Saudi territory. This operation represented the first time Saudi Arabia engaged in direct military action within Iranian borders.

The strikes were followed by a reported decline in Iranian attacks against Saudi Arabia. Following the military action, Saudi officials informed Tehran of the operation, which prompted diplomatic efforts between the two nations to prevent further escalation of the regional war.

Further reports suggest that the United Arab Emirates may have also carried out its own undisclosed military operations against Iran during this period.
