| 2015-10-28 |
| The Yemeni army and the popular committees destroyed on Sunday a Saudi warship, the third vessel sinking in Yemen's offshore waters in one month. The Saudi warship was targeted by a rocket as it was in the waters close to the southwestern province of Taiz, Yemeni media quoted field sources as saying. The warship had regularly been shelling Yemeni coastal villages, with rockets. The local media noted that the vessel sand after it was set ablaze due to the Yemeni rocket. It is the third Saudi warship to be targeted by the army and the committees this month. On October 10, a Saudi warship was targeted and destroyed in the southwestern coast of Yemen, in the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, which connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden. On October 7, the Yemeni forces managed to destroy another Saudi vessel in the area, with reports saying that the sunken ship had repeatedly fired rockets on residential areas in Taiz. |

| #3 Al-Manar was listed as a "Specially Designated Global Terrorist entity," and banned by the United States on 17 December 2004. It is a Hezbollah mouth piece. File its reporting under fiction and move on. |

| #1 The Yemeni Army. Boy there's an ambiguous term. Given all I've been reading I can't tell who's who and what team they're on today. Is this a Houthi army? |
