Yemeni army soldiers, backed by allied fighters from Popular
Committees, have launched an airstrike against a command center of
Saudi-sponsored militiamen loyal to Yemen's former president, Abd Rabbuh
Mansur Hadi, in the country’s southern province of Aden. A Yemeni military source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said
Yemeni soldiers and their allies attacked the military site in the
al-Burayqah district of the province on Thursday, using a
domestically-designed and -manufactured Qasef K2 (Striker K2) combat
drone. Later in the day, Yemeni troopers and fighters from Popular
Committees carried out an ambush against vehicles carrying Saudi-paid
militiamen on the outskirts of al-Sadis area in Saudi Arabia's southern
border region of Najran, killing or injuring those on board. Yemeni soldiers loyal to the Houthi Ansarullah movement line

allies had managed to purge a number of Saudi mercenaries’ positions
east of al-Nar Mountain in the kingdom’s Jizan region. The official noted that several Saudi-sponsored militiamen were killed or wounded in the process. Saudi Arabia and a number of its regional allies launched a
devastating campaign against Yemen in March 2015, with the goal
of bringing the government of Hadi back to power and crushing Houthi
Ansarullah movement. People stand at the scene of a Saudi airstrike that hit a

the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED), a nonprofit
conflict-research organization, the Saudi-led war has claimed the lives
of over 60,000 Yemenis since January 2016.
The war has also taken a heavy toll on the country’s infrastructure,
destroying hospitals, schools, and factories. The UN said in a report in
December 2018 that over 24 million Yemenis are in dire need of
humanitarian aid, including 10 million suffering from extreme levels of
hunger Source: https://www.presstv.com/Detail/2019/04/25/594322/Yemeni-combat-drone-targets-Saudi-mercenaries-command-center-in-Aden-Report
In fact, no ideology has been as genocidal as Islam… Islam has killed more than 5 times the number of people killed by communism. In the total numbers we have updated over 80 million Christians killed by Muslims in 500 years in the Balkan states, Hungary, Ukraine, Russia. Then we have India. The official estimate number of Muslim slaughters of Hindus is 80 million. However, Muslim historian Firistha (b. 1570) wrote (in either Tarikh-i Firishta or the Gulshan-i Ibrahim) that Muslims slaughtered over 400 million Hindus up to the peak of Islamic rule of India, bringing the Hindu population down from 600 mil to 200 million at the time. With these new additions the Muslim genocide of non-Muslims since the birth of Mohammed would be over 669 million murders. Islam: The Religion of Genocide Perspective: Think the Spanish inquisition was bad? More people are killed by Islamists each year than in all 350 years of the Spanish Inquisition* combined. The Spanish inquisition ( Tri...

"The semiconductor industry, which we are technologically leading, or technology advanced, of course, to get that intellectual property - that's interesting to China," Brekelmans said in an interview on the sidelines of the Shangri-La Dialogue security meeting in Singapore.

In our newest intelligence reports, our intelligence agency said that the biggest cyber threat is coming from China, and that we do see most cyber activity when it comes to us being as from China. That was the case last year, but that's...
Kabul: Five members of the US-led international military coalition were killed on Saturday by a roadside bomb in southern Afghanistan, the latest deadly attack against foreign troops since the Taliban announced the start of their spring offensive this week. The renewed violence came as Afghan President Hamid Karzai acknowledged that his government has been receiving funds from CIA for more than a decade as part of regular monthly assistance from the US government. Karzai told reporters at a news conference that the CIA's station chief in Kabul has assured him that regular funding the US intelligence agency gives his government will not be cut off. Karzai had earlier confirmed that his government had received such payments following a story published in The New York Times that said the CIA had given the Afghan National Security Council tens of millions of dollars in monthly payments delivered in suitcases, backpacks and plastic shopping bags. "The help and assistance f...
