RIYADH, June 19: Saudi border guards have foiled an attempt by suspected Yemeni arms dealers to smuggle in grenades and guns to be used in assassinations in the kingdom, a newspaper reported on Thursday.
Okaz quoted security sources as saying that border guards in the southern Jizan province exchanged fire on early Wednesday with a number of Yemeni arms dealers in the high mountains.
