"By positioning its jet fighters in the Red Sea and firing missiles that went into space, Israel sought to avoid accusations that it had violated Saudi Arabia’s airspace in conducting the attack. Saudi officials have condemned the attack but haven’t referred publicly to Israel’s firing of missiles over their territory."

Submission statement:
Basically, Israelis were able to use ballistic missiles launched from fighter jets, heading far into outer space above Saudi Arabia (without violating its airspace), before returning over the target, while carrying warheads so small and accurate they could hit individual rooms in the building.
The attack was a [failure.](https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/article-867195) No senior Hamas targets were killed.
The UAE were so outraged they pulled the invitation for Israel to join [in a defence expo](https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/uae-bars-israel-from-dubai-airshow-jerusalem-said-to-believe-qatar-strike-is-the-reason/) that was being held there.
Great going Bibi…
Defenceman expo ban so far, they are also consulting with the saudis to end Israeli integration into the region and putting the Abraham accords on ice, how does this achieve peace in the middle east? How does this expand the already fragile Abraham accords? Does Israel want to be isolated like North Korea, Belarus or Russia, even President Trump- proabably the most pro-Israeli president in history has shown signs in his second adminstration of losing patience with bibi on some files, it telling during his trip to the mideast President Trump visited Qatar, the UAE, and Saudo Arabia, not Israel or Egypt for that matter.
