Several Saudi media outlets confirm, three Eritrean officers who crossed the Red Sea on board of an Eritrean military aircraft claimed political asylum in Saudi Arabia today after landing at King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Air Port, in Jazan.
The aircraft was monitored by the Saudi Air Force as soon as it entered the Saudi air space and reports indicate that Security at the air port had been tight during the incident.
Although personal details of the three officers are not made available yet, their asylum request is being considered by the Saudi authorities.
In the past, several Eritrean Air Force pilots and officers have defected the dictatorial regime in Asmara in a similar fashion. Recently, Eritrean female pilot Captain Rahwa Gebrekristos claimed asylum in Saudi after she was sent to bring back an Eritrean Aircraft which had been left at the Jazan air port by pervious absconders.

If you all he/she who want change, go and pick a gun and fight. It is not here behind the computer talking sh!t. Be a man!! The change you want only comes from abandoning welfare and go back and fight. You are begging the woyanus will fight for you. Woyanus are not so idiots, they don’t want to dig their grave.

Well done Officers! I salute you, because, in addition to taking the dictator’s precious asset, you have abandoned the barbarian/Prince of death and deception and that in of itself sends a clear message to him and his sheep/ Papagalos followers that their “emperor Issaias is naked”. You have redefined bravery, along with the previous courageous men and women pilots, his star artist the brave Wedi Tikabo and many more to come. Because of your bravery, Eritrea is less safe, less comfortable and more shivering for the dictator and his handful cronies. The self appointed/defacto president for life” has actually been without cloth for decades. May God/Allah bless you for decisive action. Thanks
