Saudi military heroism
"Seventy-three Saudis have been killed and 26 are missing since fighting broke out in November between Saudi forces and Yemeni rebels, Saudi Deputy Defense Minister Prince Khaled bin Sultan told reporters on Tuesday. "The confrontation on the southern border has resulted in 73 martyrs and 26 missing," said Sultan in comments broadcast on television from a media conference in Al-Khoba in southern Jizan province."
