Bashir congratulates Saudi monarch on victory over Yemen rebels
November 9, 2009 (KHARTOUM) – The Sudanese president Omer Hassan Al-Bashir phoned today Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah congratulating him for “victory” over Yemeni rebels on the borders, state media reported.
King Abdullah thanked Bashir for his call and his concern stressing his resolve on sustaining his country’s security and expressed gratitude for “Sudan government and people” for their “honorable” stances towards Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia launched air strikes on rebels in northern Yemen last week after Shi’ite Muslim insurgents crossed the border into the kingdom and said they had taken control of an area called Jabal Dukhan.
The world’s top oil exporter has become increasingly anxious about instability in Yemen, which is facing a Shi’ite insurgency in the north, separatist sentiment in the south and a growing threat from resurgent al Qaeda fighters.
The Yemeni government has accused Iran of backing the rebels.

Right move by Al-Bashir at the right time.
This intervention prevents further complicated issues over Halayeb by Beja Rebels from Eritrea as well.
Thank Al-Bashir.

Im wondering why Bashir has to congratulates Saudi Monarch on victory over Yemen rebels like he did defeated rebels before in Sudan? Omar must have to step down peacefully without being overrun by rebels in couple of months.
