Pakistani man killed in Houthi projectile attack on Saudi border city
 [NEWS.XINHUANET] The Saudi civil defense authority said on Sunday that a Pak man was killed in a projectile attack by Yemen's Houthi ...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The Yemeni government has accused the Houthis of having ties to the Iranian government, which wouldn't suprise most of us. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews... militias on a Saudi border city, local newspapers reported. Figures show dozens of civilians have lost lives in such attacks since the Saudi-led war broke out in Yemen. In a joint presser with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres on Sunday, Saudi Minister of Foreign Affairs Adel bin Ahmed al-Jubeir said the Houthi militias have failed to implement any of the more than 70 agreements signed with them.
