Yes, following the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990. Operation Desert Shield was began by western forces. During this time and Iraqi force crossed the Saudi border and occupied a small town named Khafji. The assault was nearly immediately thrown back. The west thought this was a minor maneuver but looking at how ineffective Iraq was throughout Operation Desert Storm, this was probably a major attack for them. They were incredibly not successful but Iraq did invade Saudi Arabia.
