22 UAE soldiers killed in Yemen missile attack

[forcetrip]

they were angry because they have to go face the war rather then rented pakistani forces . now think if today we read these were pakistani solders then ?

Our hired army casualties would have been increasingly high because we would never get the same supply lines that their own troops get, which by the way is pretty appalling as it is. Secondly our army would not run leaving weapons and armor behind even before first contact at the ambush site, that means higher casualties as well.

I think this has to be one of the most devastating use if this missile. War is not a joke.

On a side note, gulf nations had declared months ago that they had destroyed all such missiles, where did it come from?

LOL! it is months now. do you think it will be over when Yemen is comparable to saudi in terms of population, area and the support it enjoys in occupied yemeni provinces of Jizan, Aisr, Najaran and Baha in saudi Hands. Time is nearing for yemenis to up their ante.

RIP.
As expected this conflict is headed towards a stalemate with neither side able to give the final punch. Arguably its the Saudi coalition that is losing out in the long run just like NATO lost out in Afghanistan. Slow asymmetric warfare bleeds the stronger power to death.

Yemeni Army overwhelmingly support the Yemeni Revolution and fighting the Saudi Invasion.

The opponents of Yemeni Revolution Lost and invited the foreigners.

Infact saudi has lost yemen for ever due to wrong policies.

RIP soldiers.

I suspect most of the soldiers in UAE army are anyway from other Arabian countries such as Egypt, Sudan etc., since oil money Sheiks are completely incapable of fighting wars.

I think UAE should ask Indians to provide them soldiers, so that they can send these to Yemen. UAE and Indians have best of the relations, why not take it to the next level?

Indian army is not for rent unlike you know who. Stick to topic and don't drag India into this issue.

1) That war is not against yemeni people war is against pro iran militants . that is why Yemeni people fighting with KSA .

2) iranian navy and its strategy to use multiple speed boats are effective near its own territorial water or gulf , not in open ocean .

3) UAE and KSA both have well equipped navies.

Yemenis are PRO-IRAN.

Iraq is fighting with ISIS and not capable enough to declare a war on someone else.

you people live in the world of fools like hameed gul.

Sunni is in minority in iraq . lolx . you kidding fella ?

Shia are 70% in Iraq.

UAE is a peaceful country. it is suprising that it is invovled in war.

Less than 30 UAE soldiers have died in almost 6 months of war. This is nothing. All while over 2500 Houthi terrorists have been eliminated.

When you are fighting against the most heavily armed militia in the world (Houthi terrorist cult + the Yemeni army loyal to Ali Abdullah Saleh) in highly mountainous terrain in their backyard this is bound to happen. It's a war after all.

It does not change the ground realities which show that the Houthi terrorist cult is losing land on a constant basis. Soon they will return to their caves in Saada were they belong. Devastated ones that is.

Yemenis are PRO-IRAN.

Yes, and the suns orbit is the earth. In fact all 450 million Arabs LOVE Farsis. Everyone knows this.

Each and every one of your terrorists will be dealt with and those who survive will return to completely devastated areas. In fact KSA should issue an warning to all civilians in Saada and afterwards carpet bomb it completely. It's full of terrorists who nobody will miss. UAE will retaliate 100 fold. Just watch and see. If your beloved Al-Assad can do this on a 10 times bigger scale without any consequences so should KSA.

Houthi terrorists are attacked all over Yemen by brave Yemenis. That's why they are so desperate and are now using child soldiers. That's because there is a limit of murderous trash.

Beautiful ancient Yemen will be free and prosperous again. Free of all kind of terrorists (Houthi cult + AQAP).

this is called mis-calculation.

 

[Hell NO]

Yemenis are not paid for defending their country.

If they run low on ammo then Iranian ships will come to supply arms. No one dares to shoot at an Iranian ship and risk war with Iran and Iran's proxy Shia Iraq.

Wrong check your information before making such an idiotic claim + I find it offensive (egyptian soldiers in me army)

Yemenis arnt pro iran , only houthis are pro iran + do you really think iraq is capable enough to fight a war with any of its neighbor. If so thn u are the biggest fool ever must be the fan of ayatullah kamini.

How can you be so sure about it? When you say KSA war is not against Yemenis are you serious? So how many of those 4500 bombarded and dead were not Yemenis? Whose hospital, factory and infrastructure was bombed out of existence indiscriminately? There were Yemenis weren't they. You don't need to be Khomeini supporter (he is dead by the way) to realize the KSA war is only a war crime and nothing else.

I think KSA could have achieved its goals better with a peaceful approach or a limited one. They have alienated the yemenis population in my opinion.

The Houthi's are a tiny sect/movement/cult or whatever one should call it which emerged less than 25 years ago in a small province of Northern Yemen called Saada.

Saada Governorate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Zaydi Yemenis who make up around 40% of the population of Yemen have nothing to do with them and most are against them. We are talking about a movement with no more than 50.000 members and supporters.

What people fail to understand in this unfortunate conflict is that KSA and the Coalition is not only fighting against the Houthi's but large segments of the Yemeni army which are loyal to the Ali Abdullah Saleh crook and tribes loyal to him or which have been bribed by his network.

Ali Abdullah Saleh was a Yemeni dictator who ruled for over 30 years in Yemen. He is a Zaydi himself from the North but he (as President and Commander of the Yemeni army) fought against the Houthi's numerous times.

You can read about the early history of the Houthi's here below.

Houthis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I warn you, Yemen is extremely complicated. Probably only second to Iraq if not more of all the Arab countries in terms of conflict/unrest/recent history.

Since they emerged in the early 1990's after Yemen's unification to Operation Scorched Earth which occurred a mere 5 years ago. Ironically Saleh and KSA were on the same side fighting the same Houthi's that this horrible man has now allied with.

Yemen ex-leader Saleh 'amassed up to $60bn' - UN probe - BBC News

As he ruled Yemen for over 30 years he developed an extremely sophisticated network in Yemen where he bribed almost all the major tribes but played opponents against each other. After he was removed mostly peacefully during the protests in Yemen (which I have covered extensively) when the so-called "Arab Spring" emerged the House of Saud foolishly hosted him. This despite the fact that KSA told him to step down after the protests as he had everyone against him back then. He never forgave that it seems and never accepted that he got removed.

He and his friends are basically the ones who have caused this misery. The Houthi's are just used as cannon fodder. They have their movement but their only core supporters of that movement are found in small Saada.

In reality most Yemenis are not satisfied with any fraction in Yemen. The story of our "fantastic" Muslim world of late.

@Belew_Kelew who is a former military man and who himself fought against Saleh ruled Yemen when Eritrea and Yemen had their conflict about the Hanish Islands in the Southern Red Sea.
