Saudi Navy Completes Successful Deployment Mission in the Arabian Sea

Saudi Naval Forces – The Arab Coalition backing Yemen’s internationally recognized government said the Royal Saudi Naval Forces have concluded their mission in the Arabian Sea, where they conducted inspection patrols and operations aimed at curbing smuggling. The deployment forms part of sustained efforts to block illicit trade routes and prevent the flow of weapons, amid evolving developments on the Yemeni front.

The move aligns with broader regional security measures aimed at curbing illegal maritime activity and reinforcing stability in surrounding waters.

Saudi Arabia operates two main naval fleets: the Eastern Fleet in the Arabian Gulf and the Western Fleet in the Red Sea. Each fleet includes combat vessels, logistical and technical support units, naval aviation, marine forces, and specialized maritime security units.

The Arabian Sea has recently witnessed multiple interdiction operations, including the foiling of a major drug-smuggling attempt during missions conducted by Combined Task Force 150, which is currently led by the Royal Saudi Naval Forces.
