Daily Star: Saudi Arabia 'scrambles fighter jets' amid fears of WAR in Middle East
SAUDI Arabia has scrambled its air force for strikes in Lebanon amid fears of a new war in the Middle East, according to reports.
The kingdom has mobilised its F-15 fighter jet fleet ito launch a military operation against the Iranian-backed terrorist militia of Hezbollah in Lebanon, regional news website The Baghdad Post reports.
Saudi Arabia previously accused both Lebanon and Iran of commiting an act of wars against it after rebels fired a missile at the King Khalid International Airport in the kingdom's capital of Riyadh.
Yesterday, Saudi Arabia ordered its citizens to leave Lebanon escalating fears of war to new heights – which the US have dubbed grounds for a “proxy war”.
Hezbollah are the most powerful military and political force in Lebanon and receives major support from Iran.
Reports now state the Royal Saudi Air Force has placed its warplanes on alert to launch strikes as the region sits on a knife edge.

I recently read that 4 F-15 make already a raid against Hezbollah. I don't know if that's true or not.
If that's happening, it will be with the agreement of Israel or, at least, informing them.
Kaka meet fan.
Air strikes against Lebanon will generate ground strikes against Saudi Arabia.
