The Najran conflict was a poorly documented conflict over Najran in the early 1930s fought between the Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen and the Kingdom of Hejaz and Nejd. In the winter of 1931/1932, in response to a Yemeni unit invading Najran and destroying Saudi property, Khalid bin Luwai arrived in Najran with his forces and clashed with Yemeni troops. As a result of the clash, the Yemeni troops were forced to withdraw from Najran.[1]
