[Khaama (Afghanistan)] A terror suspect who was involved in more than 300 bombings in Afghanistan has been nabbed Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! by the police in United Kingdom, it has been reported.
The detained suspect has been identified as Khalid Ali and was arrested in April 2017 on charges of preparing acts of terrorism.
He was arrested from Westminster and at least three knives were also discovered and confiscated from him by the police forces.
The police in UK also released the interrogation footage of the suspect where he admitted being in Afghanistan and detonating explosives.
In response to a question regarding the casualties inflicted on civilians or security personnel in Afghanistan, Ali has said "I will remain silent."
The anti-government armed myrmidon groups frequently use explosives materials for the roadside kaboomings and boom-mobileings to target the government staff and security personnel.
However, corruption finds a dozen alibis for its evil deeds... in majority of such incidents the ordinary civilians are targeted besides such bombings incur casualties to the security personnel and in some cases the Talibs themselves are killed or maimed.
A total of 10,453 civilian casualties ‐ 3,438 people killed and 7,015 injured ‐ were documented in the 2017 Annual Report released last month by the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) and the UN Human Rights Office.
The report further added that the high number of casualties to the civilians were inflicted by suicide kabooms and other attacks using improvised bombs (IEDs).

[ALMASDARNEWS] At least two people were killed in 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... , today, after the 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 ... forces fired several ballistic missiles towards Gulf kingdom’s Jizan Region.
In response to Houthi missile strike, the Saudi-led Coalition has vowed to retaliate against the group.
Saudi Arabia has been actively bombing Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... for over three years in a bid to restore exiled President ’Abd Rubbah Mansour Hadi’s rule.
Despite the bombings, the Houthi forces have managed to take control of 25 percent of Yemen, including the capital city of Sanaa.

[ALMASDARNEWS] The Gulf-backed troops in western Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... suffered heavy losses tonight after the 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 ... forces scored a direct hit on their positions along the coast.
According to the official media wing of the Houthi forces, their rocket battalion fired a Qaher-2M ballistic missile at a gathering of Gulf-backed troops in the southern part of the Hodeideh Governorate, resulting in heavy losses in the latter’s ranks.
This latest missile strike comes just 72 hours after the Houthi forces launched a massive counter-assault to recapture the ground they lost to the Gulf-backed fighters in southern Hodeideh.
The Houthi operation resulted in the recapture of the entire al-Jah area and the death of more than 50 Gulf-backed fighters.

Al-Masdar says on their about page that they are an independent media service free from any political or corporate funding, sponsorship or association, but western media refers to them as “Pro-Regime [Syrian].” Overall, we rate Al-Masdar Left-Center biased in reporting and Mixed factually due to poor sourcing. (M. Huitsing 9/25/2017)
Given recent Al Masdar reporting, its a wonder that any "Gulf-backed troops" are still alive.

Truly, Clurong Peacock9529. But nobody is unbiased in that part of the world -- it's just a matter of recognizing which bias a particular source has, and how fanciful its reports. Too far from reality, and we don't use them. That's one reason we stopped posting articles from Hurriyet after the so-called coup attempt in Turkey. It no longer dared be an independent voice.
[AFP] An Israeli air strike on the Gaza Strip destroyed a Hamas tunnel giving frogmen unseen access to the sea from their base, the Israeli army said Sunday.
Army spokesman Jonathan Conricus told reporters that the tunnel, the first of its kind discovered by Israeli intelligence, was hit on June 3 in the north of the strip as Israeli aircraft pounded over a dozen militant targets in Gaza.
He said it was probable there were more like it not yet located by Israel.
"We continue to monitor using all our operational, technical and intelligence capabilities that we have at our disposal," he added.
Last week's strikes were launched in retaliation for rockets fired at Israel by Palestinians in Gaza.
Conricus said that the tunnel ran from a military facility of Gaza's Islamist rulers Hamas into the Mediterranean sea, "a few dozen metres away" at a depth underwater of two to three metres.
"It could have facilitated hostile activity against the state of Israel," he said, adding that the tunnel's underwater exit was about three kilometres (two miles) from Israel's border.
He said that the tunnel had been used in Hamas training and was "operational".
