(FNA) ~ A Yemeni missile strike hit a Saudi-led coalition military base in Asir province where Israel’s military experts are stationed.
The Khamis Mushait air base in Asir province came under Yemen’s Qaher-I ballistic missile on Tuesday.
There were no immediate report on the exact number of casualties, but eyewitnesses confirmed that the Yemeni missile precisely hit Khamis Mushait airbase.
The Yemeni missile attack came in retaliation for the Saudi airstrikes on Yemen’s civilians.
Earlier, local sources in the Asir region located in the South of Saudi Arabia had also confirmed that an Israeli Air Force plane transported weapons, missiles and other equipment to Khamis Mushait air base in Asir to support the Saudi Alliance in aggression against Yemen.
In a relevant development last week, a media report said that the newly-leaked documents have uncovered close ties between the Israeli and Saudi regimes in the latter’s war against Yemen.
Based on the documents, the Saudi defense minister has recently written a letter to the commander of border guards in the southern parts of the kingdom decreeing that security in the region should be handled by an Israeli company. The Israeli company has been mandated to deal with cross border retaliatory attacks carried out by Yemen’s Ansarullah, al-Waght news website reported.
A report by Yemeni Najm al-Thaqeb website revealed that, following the failure of Saudi-backed forces in their attack on Yemen and after it became apparent that some Saudi frontier regions might fall into Yemeni forces and Ansarullah fighters’ hands, the Saudi regime contracted an Israeli company known as Al Majal Group to oversee security in the Southern region. The Israeli company has already obtained 45 million US dollars to plant landmines and put barriers in the border region.
This is not the first time that Saudi Arabia is using services of the Israeli top security company.
Since 2010, the Israeli Al Majal Group has taken charge of security during the mandatory Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca, or Hajj. It was under the watch of the Israeli security company that over 4,000 Muslim pilgrims were killed during last year’s Hajj following a deadly stampede in Mina, the worst in history.
Al Majal G4S is a private Israeli security contractor that has also been implicated in enabling the torture of administrative detainees in Palestine, including children, according to the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) activist Zaid Shuaibi.
The BDS campaign has not been sitting idly by. In October 2014, the campaign sent a clear message to the Saudi government, urging it to terminate the contract with the company that happens to provide equipment and security services to protect Israeli settlements, occupation checkpoints and police facilities.
As expected, the Saudi government not only ignored the calls but also handed the Israeli company more power in handling security in the kingdom.
While the whole planet fake-cries and expresses fake-outrage over the (typically) blatantly conspicuous Mossad-MIT-Takfiri false flag attack in Istanbul, the genocide in Yemen continued unabated as the perpetrators of the Ramadan Massacre struck Ta’iz, only this time it wasn’t Daesh that did the killing but its Saudi overlords. Warplanes of the Wahhabi tyrants dropped bombs on Yemenis buying petrol at a station on the Hayfan Intersection, slaughtering at least 40 civilians, including many women and children, wounding dozens more and destroying vital energy supplies that Yemenis so desperately need as a result of the savage US-UK-Zionist-Saudi siege on their nation. No different than the Takfiri terrorist goons who lash out against innocents with suicide attacks and car bombs in Syria, Iraq and Lebanon after getting battered by Resistance Axis forces, the House of Saud carried out this ungodly massacre because its Emirati pals ran from the battlefield and left it to get trounced by those ever-heroic, ever-smiling moujahideen known as the Houthis. And this is exactly what has happened indeed over the last two weeks since the UAE’s cowardly, humiliating departure, with Ansarullah and its allies scoring massive victories and bringing the Saudi regime to the brink of a complete breakdown in Lahij, Ta’iz, Ma’rib, Sanaa, Jawf and beyond. Not ONE difference between Dönmeh Saudi Arabia and the Takfiri bacteria it spawned. Same ideology, same cowardice, same tactics, same filth.
So if you’re not going to open up your mouth about Yemen and the suffering of its people that is comparable only to Palestine in its brutal depth, spare me your bullshit “analysis” about Turkey. Because unlike Yemenis and their dauntless Mouqawamah who had this criminal war imposed upon them by Al-Saud at the behest of ‘Israel’ as well as the US and UK ZOGs, Erdogan and his Takfiri-sympathizing Turkish civilian supporters (either from the AKP or otherwise) bear THE BRUNT of responsibility for the carnage in Turkey’s most populous city yesterday evening. The Neo-Ottomans led by Recep the Psychopath have done everything in their power to SPREAD Takfirism, while Hizbullah, the Syrian Arab Army, the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Iraqi Popular Mobilization and of course Ansarullah have done everything in their power to DEAD Takfirism. And it is the men of the Yemeni Islamic Resistance whose fight may be the most important of all as it is they who are confronting the devilish fathers of Wahhabi-Takfirism directly. Thus, you ain’t gon’ find a single tear here for Istanbul. Sorry. No waterworks for Turkey while Syria burns, Iraq screams and Yemen bleeds profusely in a monstrous aggression backed fully by the Turkish regime. And if you find that offensive, I couldn’t give a damn, really. The abandonment of Yemen by the vast majority of “Muslims” and actually, all of humanity, is infinitely more offensive, disgraceful and disgusting than my deliberate lack of pleasantries.
(FNA) ~ Yemeni intelligence sources disclosed that the US special troops have been deployed in the Southern part of Yemen.
“The US special and intelligence forces have arrived in Southern Yemen on the pretext of fighting the Al-Qaeda terrorist group,” a Yemeni intelligence source, speaking on condition of anonymity, told FNA on Monday.
The source noted that the US troops have been stationed in al-Anad military base in Lahij province to the North of Aden province.
“The UAE has asked the US to dispatch its special forces to Southern Yemen to control Bab al-Mandeb Strait,” the Yemeni source added.
In early May, the United States military deployed more than 200 US Marines in the port city of Mukalla in the Central province of Hadramout.
Yemen’s Arabic-language al-Masirah news website reported that the forces were deployed in the strategic seaport and oil terminal.
The news came as local media quoted an unnamed military source the US army has deployed 20 new military helicopters in Southern Yemen.
“15 Apache and five Black Hawk choppers have been sent to al-Anad military base in Lahij province in Southern Yemen,” the Arabic-language news website al-Khabar quoted an unnamed military source as saying.
In a relevant development, Ansarullah popular movement in a statement condemned the US deployment in the Southern parts of Yemen.
“This action is in line with Washington’s colonial goals and is blatant aggression against Yemen,” part of the statement read.
The statement reiterated that the Yemeni people irrespective of their political inclinations are against the US troops’ deployment in their country.
The statement described the US redeployment of Special Forces in Southern Yemen a dangerous move at a time when political efforts and peace talks are underway in Kuwait for putting an end to war and suffering of the Yemeni people.
US military has also deployed a significant number of its forces in coastal waters near Yemen, as al-Masirah reported that the amphibious assault ship USS Boxer with more than 1,200 sailors and Marines as well as a group of vessels aboard were also stationed offshore in the Gulf of Aden.
Yemen’s Southern coast is now under the control of US troops, who are deployed to the region under the pretext of battling al-Qaeda militants.
The deployment of US troops comes a year after the withdrawal of its forces from Yemen. On March 21, 2015, the US evacuated its remaining forces from the airbase “due to the deteriorating security situation” a day after al-Qaeda captured the nearby city of al-Houta.
Pentagon has also announced that it sent a group of its commandos to Yemen.
“The Group of al- Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula remains a significant security threat to the United States and to our regional partners and we welcome this effort to specifically remove AQAP from Mukalla and to degrade, disrupt and destroy AQAP in Yemen,”said Navy Capt. Jueff Davis, a Pentagon spokesman.
Something epic is going down in Yemen. The Lions of Ansarullah, recapturing territories with the same ferocity and precision that they displayed in the months following their September 21st Revolution in 2014, have liberated Jabal Jalis in Lahij from Saudi occupation forces after a fierce 72-hour battle, inflicting scores of casualties on the US-Zionist-backed enemy. This ELEPHANTINE strategic victory brings the moujahideen of the Yemeni Islamic Resistance within striking distance of Al-Anad Military Airport, giving them a critical vantage point overlooking the Saudi regime’s military headquarters on the Southern Yemeni front.
In other words, the soldiers of Al-Saud are in the sights of the Houthis and any moment now, Qaher-1s, Striking Stars, Toshkas, Zelzals, Katyushas and all kinds of other artillery will rain down on the moronic, murderous, Shi’a-hating heads of the Najdi-Wahhabi army and drive them into the earth for the vultures and other scavenging creatures to feast upon. The freeing of Al-Anad will essentially trigger a domino effect that will expedite the genocidal Saudis’ departure from Yemen in a swift fashion even more humiliating than their Emirati counterparts. I told y’all that Triumph and Fall Of The Tyrants Day was near! How can even the most cynical naysayer say that the men of Ansarullah aren’t the sons of Nabi Muhammad (S.A.W.W.) when they are achieving legendary victories during Ramadan just as the Holy Prophet (S.A.W.W.) did during the Battle of Badr?! Sayyed Abdul Malik al-Houthi’s Mouqawamists most certainly are the sons of Rasoullah (S.A.W.W.)! And the sons of Ali (A.S.)! And the sons of Hussein (A.S.)! And the sons of Zayd (A.S.)! And FINAL victory will soon be theirs quicker than we can chant those three words that sum everything up so beautifully and succinctly: “DEATH TO SAUD!”
US Terror Report on Iran a Stupendous Denial of Washington-Saudi Terror Reality
Finian CunninghamSince 1984, the US has been labeling Iran a leading state sponsor of terrorism, a charge that was reiterated last week. However, global events explode Washington’s credibility and denial of reality.
Russia’s Defense Ministry, for example, this week reported that some 270 civilians were killed within 24 hours from shelling of Syria’s second city, Aleppo, by Al-Qaeda-affiliated terror groups.
Moscow said the surge in violence by these groups followed from the curbing of Russian air strikes at the request of Washington – purportedly to spare “moderate rebels” located in the same areas as Al-Qaeda terror brigades.
The latter include Jabhat al-Nusra and Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), both of which are internationally proscribed by the United Nations Security Council.
As noted by former British ambassador to Syria, Peter Ford, the risible pretext of protecting “moderates” is a cynical cover for the unavoidable fact that the US is, in effect, siding with Al-Qaeda terrorism in Syria for the overthrow of the Assad government.
It has been reliably documented that the anti-government militia in Syria affiliated with Al-Qaeda, including Jaysh al-Islam and Ahrar al-Sham, are supported materially and politically by the governments of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and NATO-member Turkey – all close allies of Washington.
Also in the news, just as the latest US State Department report came out pillorying Iran over terrorism, the United Nations condemned the Saudi-led military coalition in Yemen for inflicting 60 percent of child deaths over the past year in the war-torn country.
The Saudi-led coalition includes the US and Britain which supplies warplanes and logistics for air raids purportedly aimed at defeating Houthi rebels who ousted the US-Saudi-backed regime in early 2015. The latest UN report also condemned the Saudi coalition for destroying hospitals and schools across Yemen, which had already been designated as the Arab region’s poorest country even before the US-Saudi military intervention began in March 2015.
Disgracefully, within days of the report being published UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon buckled under political pressure and removed Saudi Arabia and its coalition partners from a global blacklist of rights violations against children.
Nevertheless, while in Syria the terrorist campaign is being waged by Al-Qaeda-affiliated groups funded and weaponized indirectly by foreign governments. In Yemen a major part of the violence is attributable directly to the military forces of the same foreign governments. By any definition this is terrorism, either state-sponsored or state-directed.
In presenting its latest global terror report, the US State Department devotes the vast majority of its concern to the threat posed by Islamic State (also referred to as ISIL) and related Al-Qaeda franchises, such as Boko Haram in Nigeria and Al Shabaab in Somalia.
“ISIL remain the greatest terrorism threat globally,” said the US State Department, adding: “ISIL-aligned groups have established branches in parts of the Middle East, North Africa, West Africa, the Russian North Caucasus , and South Asia.”
In the US press briefing at least 95 per cent of the content was connected to Al-Qaeda-linked terror groups. Only about five per cent dealt with Iran and its alleged sponsorship of terrorism.
After detailing ISIS terrorism, the State Department then makes the discrepant assertion: “The United States continues to work to disrupt Iran’s support for terrorism. Iran remains the leading state sponsor of terrorism globally.”
If Iran is the “leading terror sponsor globally”, as Washington claims, then why is its latest global terror report preponderantly taken up with Al-Qaeda and various tentacle organizations?
Moreover, in the fleeting details on Iran in its report, the US bases its claim on the rather hackneyed allegation that “Iran continues to provide support to Hizballah [sic], Palestinian terrorist groups in Gaza, and various groups in Iraq and throughout the Middle East” as well as its support for “the Syrian regime.”
Iran scoffed at the allegations, saying that its support for Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Palestine is a legitimate alliance with liberation movements against US-backed Israeli state oppression.
As for Washington’s claim that Iranian support for Syria constitutes terror sponsorship, if it were a credible assessment then the US should at least be consistent in its logic and thereby should have included Russia in its latest terror report, given that Moscow is supporting the Syrian government militarily.
The US global terror report does not stand up to scrutiny. Its flagrant disconnect with reality betrays the study as having a political, or more bluntly, propaganda purpose.
The fact is that terrorist activity around the world is, by far, greatly more ascribed to Al-Qaeda-type groups. The US State Department says so itself. These groups are funded ideologically and logistically by Washington’s allies, principally Saudi Arabia. That connection of Saudi sponsorship of terror organizations has even been acknowledged previously by former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the US Treasury Department, among other senior establishment sources.
Hezbollah’s, and by extension Iran’s, alleged involvement in terrorism is an equally politicized subject fraught with murky claims and counter-claims. The US and Israel designate Hezbollah as “terrorist” but the European Union and several European governments do not. Russia officially views Hezbollah as a legitimate political party, which is a member of Lebanon’s coalition government.
Washington’s antagonism to Hezbollah arises from a litany of alleged terrorist actions, including the bombing of a US marines barracks in Beirut in 1983, which killed 241 American troops – the single greatest US military loss since the Second World War.
Several US courts have convicted Hezbollah and Iran of involvement in the Beirut bomb massacre, as well as other atrocities in Lebanon. Hezbollah and Tehran reject many of these accusations. But even if there were some truth to the American claims, it could be reasonably argued that the actions constitute military combat, not terrorism. The US-backed Israeli invasions of Lebanon in 1982 and again in 2006 were themselves arguably acts of aggression, or state-terrorism.
Another disconnect in the latest US terror report highlighting Iran is the flurry of European trade agreements signed with Tehran since the conclusion of the international nuclear accord last year. Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif’s trip to Finland last week was but the latest in a host of renewed European relations.
If Iran were such a terrorist pariah, as Washington asserts, would European governments really be courting Tehran with evident diplomatic respect?
It is estimated the US owes Iran upwards of $100 billion in assets frozen since the Islamic revolution in 1979. The US is also accused of dragging its feet on implementing sanctions relief under the terms of the P5+1 nuclear accord that came into effect on January 16 this year.
It seems obvious that one way for Washington to procrastinate on implementing the nuclear accord and the financial rewards due to Iran from unfrozen assets and European trade deals would be for the US to maintain its narrative accusing Iran of “sponsoring terrorism”.
Despite Washington’s narrative sounding increasingly hollow and in denial of its own documented links to global terrorism.

Spokesman of Yemen's Ansarullah movement, Mohammad Abdol Salam, considered that the United Nations decision to remove Saudi-led aggression on Yemen from the childkilling blacklist as destabilized until probing the issue.
Abdol Salam denied all the reports that mentioned that children were deployed on the military fronts, noting that they were arrested as smugglers and that the deteriorating socio-economic conditions in Yemen are behind such cases.
Yemen has been since March 26, 2015 under brutal aggression by Saudi-led coalition.
Thousands have been martyred and injured in the attack, with the vast majority of them are civilians.
Riyadh launched the attack on Yemen in a bid to restore power to fugitive Hadi who is a close ally to Saudi Arabia.

Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab-African Affairs Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said Saudi was seeking Iran’s help to find solution for the crisis in Yemen.
In a meeting with Director General of Morocco’s Maghreb Arab Press (MAP) Khalil Al-Hashem Al-Idrisi, Abdollahian said Iran supported resolution of Yemen crisis and accepted Saudi demand for Iran’s help in this regard, IRNA news agency reported.
Meanwhile, Sputnik news quoted Abdollahian as saying that Saudi had sent an envoy to Saudi Arabia in a bid to find a way to end the Yemeni war.
Commenting on Iran-Saudi relations, the official called for close cooperation between Tehran and Riyadh, adding that dialogue between Iran and Saudi Arabia is beneficial to both countries, the region and the Islamic World, IRNA reported.
He said dialogue will help remove certain misunderstandings between the two countries.
Noting that Saudi Arabia is suffering from misconceptions, he said Riyadh holds the false notion that Iran in involved in secret talks with the US regional issues while the truth is Iran talked with Americans only on nuclear issues.
The official expressed the hope that ties with Saudi Arabia will resume its normal conditions.
On the other hand, Abdollahian said his country welcomes political solutions to regional crises, stressing that these solutions should be settled by regional people.
The Iranian official said that Iran did not approve of proxy war in Syria, pointing to the 1600-kilometer-long borderline Iran shared with Iraq and said what happens in Syria and Iraq effects Iran’s security as well.
Unfortunately certain regional and foreign security administrations manipulated terrorists for political purposes and provoked unrests in Syria, Amir-Abdollahian noted.
The Iranian diplomat meanwhile, stressed that Iran has sent its military advisors to Syria upon the Damascus’ request to fight terrorism in a move to safeguard its security against the threat of terrorists and the danger of Zionist regime.
Amir-Abdollahian underlined that Iran’s proposal for resolution of Syria crisis is based on respecting the ceasefire, formation of national transition government, drafting a new constitution by Syrians themselves and holding parliamentarian and presidential elections there.
He said Syrians themselves should decide about President Bashar al-Assad future in a democratic way.
On the other hand, Deputy foreign minister expressed his satisfaction with moderate stance of Morocco towards regional developments.
Not Makkah and Madinah, not thrones in Riyadh and Jeddah, not anywhere in Al-Hijaz itself and DAMN SURE not beautiful, blessed and beloved Yemen. THIS is the only place that the Saudi “king” and his entire despotic Dönmeh “royal” family should have anywhere in our region: Organically toppled and epically defeated, underneath the boots of Ansarullah’s righteous moujahideen. #DeathToSaud
Well-informed sources told Al-Manar that Yemeni negotiators in Kuwait concluded an agreement on exchanging 1000 prisoners who belong to both sides of the talks before the Holy Month of Ramadan.
The sources added that the delegations also approved forming field committees to carry out the agreement.
The ongoing talks in Kuwait are held between the national Yemeni parties that include Ansarullah movement and the Saudi-led side which insists on delaying the final and comprehensive agreement which can end the tragedy of the poorest Arab country.

The commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Quds Force Saturday considered that the enemies have fruitlessly tried defeat Hezbollah several times, noting that the Islamic Resistance’s stances are viewed by the foes as game-changing.
In a speech during the inauguration ceremony of the new Iranian parliament, General Suleimani added that Hezbollah’s role is eminent for being able to defeat the Zionist entity, preserving an effective local function and contributing to the regional developments.
Suleimani pointed out that the strategic role of Hezbollah pushed the enemies to escalate their pressures on him to the extent of blocking the broadcast of Al-Manar channel via their satellites.
Iran Will Take Action in Iraq Only If Ayatollah Sistani Deems It Necessary
The commander of IRGC Quds Force said Iran will take action against terrorist groups in Iraq only if the country’s religious leadership deems it necessary, according to Tasnim news agency.
“We will act (against the terrorists in Iraq) when Iraq’s Muslim religious reference, Grand Ayatollah Sayyed Ali al-Sistani, says there is a political and international need,” Major General Suleimani said at a meeting in Tehran on Saturday.
He added that the Islamic Republic does not need to intervene in Iraq as long as Grand Ayatollah Sayyed al-Sistani is present in the Arab country.
The remarks by the Iranian general came after Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir claimed in a recent interview that Iran is interfering in the internal affairs of some regional countries, including Iraq.
Later, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hossein Jaberi Ansari rejected Jubeir’s assertion, saying that the Islamic Republic has advisory presence in Iraq at the request of the Baghdad government.
Iran’s Advisory Support Helped Syria Hold ISIL Back
Elsewhere in his remarks, General Suleimani referred to Iran’s advisory help to the Syrian government against ISIL terrorist group and said that had it not been for the Islamic Republic’s assistance in the past four years, ISIL would be ruling the entire country now.
Syria has been gripped by civil war since March 2011 with various terrorist groups, including ISIL, currently controlling parts of it.
According to a report by the Syrian Center for Policy Research, the conflict has claimed the lives of over 470,000 people, injured 1.9 million others, and displaced nearly half of the country’s pre-war population of about 23 million within or beyond its borders.
Saudi War on Yemen ‘Madness’
The Commander of the Quds Force further described continuation of Saudi Arabia’s aggression against Yemen as “mere madness,” saying that the impoverished Arab country has now more than one million fighters supporting the Huuthi movement, he stressed that the war will lead to nothing but defeat for the Saudis.
The Saudi military has been engaged in military aggression against Yemen since late March. The strikes are allegedly aimed at undermining the Huthi movement and restoring power to fugitive former Yemeni President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi.
About 9,000 people have lost their lives in the Saudi airstrikes, and a total of nearly 14,000 people have been injured since March 26.
