On amending the military strikes timetable, Asiri said any military timetable is vulnerable to being amended as it is affected by so many factors, among which are weather changes and response of the enemy and others. Asked about the participation of the Pakistani forces, he confirmed Pakistan's announcement from the very first day in the coalition, noting that coordination is taking place between specialists in the two sides to determine the time and size of participation. He said the Sammam 5 military drill which periodically takes place between the Kingdom and Pakistan is aming to the exchange of experience and mutual benefits between the two sides. Asked about reports that there were suspicious movements along the coasts and the coast of Eritrea, Asiri said the coalition forces are in full control of the skies and that the navy has completed its deployment and is controlling all ports to prevent any hostile access to or from them. He denied the occurrence of any naval acts or infiltration. If any, the coalition forces will take the appropriate measures to deal with them according to the specific bases of engagement of those forces, he added. Asked to confirm whether Houthi leaders have fled the field towards Yemeni-Omani border following clashes with Yemeni tribes, Asiri said that all the legitimacy supporters and those keen on the security and stability of Yemen and the protection of Yemeni people, be them belong to the tribes, popular committees or Yemeni army are resisting those militias simultaneously with the ongoing coalition operations. He added that such clashes are possible and the tribes are aware of the role they have to play and they are given air support on different intervals. --SPA 22:21 LOCAL TIME 19:21 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
