7th Soddy warship goes down harder than an Obamacare website
2015-12-12
The Yemeni army and the Popular Committees managed on Thursday to drown the seventh warship that belongs to the Saudi-led military coalition off Al-Mokha' coast in Al-Hadida province west of Yemen.

The national army fired a missile that directly hit the warship and killed its 3-men crew on board.

A military source told Al-Massira website that the Yemeni Missile Unit targeted the Faissali landing warship during its participation in combat attacks off the coast of Yemen in Mokha by a guided missile, which set it ablaze and killed all its military crew.

It is noteworthy that the army and the Popular Committees have targeted five warships off the coast of Mokha and Bab al-Mandab since the beginning of the Saudi-US aggression in March 25, and have destroyed the sixth less than a week ago.

#10  A short-handed ship on patrol;
A combat; a literal hole.
Too small a brave party
Of Saudi salts hearty
For adequate damage control.

#5  They were told that if they didn't fire the rocket, they had to haul it back to the firebase. Costs didn't factor in their decision.

#4  More like a jon boat shipman. Also sounds like the missile cost more than the boat.
