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... forces unleashed a barrage of ballistic missiles into southern Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... this evening, the Yemeni group’s official media wing reported. According to the report, the Houthi forces fired several Zilzal-1 ballistic missiles at a Saudi Coalition base in the Raboa District of the Asir province. The Houthi forces have claimed that their missile attack resulted in the destruction of two artillery field guns that were present at this Saudi Coalition base. This Houthi attack was conducted in response to the Saudi Navy’s missile strikes on their positions in the Abs region of Yemen’s Hajjah Governorate. Posted by: Fred 2019-04-13 |
