Washington: White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the US is working with Saudi Arabia to enhance its border security and territorial integrity.

“We also are going to undertake steps to refocus our information sharing.”

A senior US administration official said that additional assistance would also focus on “training for the Saudi Air Force” to address targeting issues.

The statements come as a senior administration official told AFP that the US would limit foreign military sales cases for munitions to Saudi Arabia.

“This reflects our continued, strong concerns with the flaws in the coalition’s targeting practices and overall prosecution of the air campaign in Yemen,” the unnamed official said.

Major General Ahmad Assiri, a spokesman for the Saudi-led Arab coalition in Yemen told AFP “we don’t comment on anonymous statements.”

In March 2015, the Saudi-led coalition launched air strikes against Iran-backed Al Houthi militants and their allies after the rebels overran much of Yemen.

More than 7,000 people have been killed in the conflict, mostly civilians, according to the United Nations.
