Is this the same location that recently fired anti-ship missile to US warship? There was some speculation on reddit whether it was "someone trying to draw US into the conflict" or "US poking the bees nest, seeking excuse to get involved".

The US had been helping the Saudis wage war in Yemen well before the anti-ship missile was fired at the US destroyer, which presumably is in response to a wedding being bombed. Matt Lee of the Associated Press asked State Department spokesman John Kirby what the difference between US involvement in Yemen and Russian involvement in Syria is, to which there was no answer. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/syria-conflict-yemen-civil-war-aleppo-russia-assad-bombings-obama-saudi-arabia-arms-sales-a7357171.html http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/syria-co...
