1. The level of callousness in which #Yemen's conflict is depicted is truly insulting to Yemenis. This article published by @thehill is poorly researched & amateurishly written w/out fact checking. It's full of misinformation & unquantifiable statements.

2. In reporting the number of civilians killed by the Saudis, authors manipulated the information and made an inaccurate citation from a UN study choosing to attribute the entire war casualty estimate of 337K to #Saudis, and not the 15K reported UN estimate. 
3. The authors of this article have completely failed to fact-check the numbers and information presented. In fact, the same source they reference undermines their own claims & reveals the misinformation included in the article. Ignoring casualties committed by #Houthis is biased
Latest @DefenceHQ update: focuses on the announced #Russian "partial mobilisation" yesterday, doubts Moscow can raise 300,000 troops, and notes the "considerable political risk" to #Putin of trying to regenerate manpower for the war on #Ukraine in this way.
Hmm
The former rector of the Moscow Aviation Institute, Anatoly Gerashchenko, had a "tragic accident" on Sept. 21, he "fell" - indeed, "flew" - down several flights of stairs and "received injuries incompatible with life". moscow-post.su/news/society/b…

In den letzten Tagen ist der Konflikt zwischen dem #Yemen und #SaudiArabia deutlich eskaliert.
Die #Houthis haben saudische Ölanlagen mit Dutzenden Drohnen attackiert.
Teile der Anlagen sind komplett niedergebrannt.
#Saudis flogen Luftangriffe als Vergeltung.

Die saudische Flugabwehr präsentierte sich wieder mal als recht löchrig.
Einige der Drohnen konnten wohl abgeschossen werden, etwa zwei Dutzend kamen dennoch durch.
Das Ganze ist durchaus erstaunlich, da Riad eigentlich über moderne Flugabwehrsysteme aus den USA verfügt.

Details on #Ukraine's reservist mobilisation: far from complete (since that would require martial law), but still of a scale that it will take weeks to complete ... and the assault on the capital is days away at most
Made a mess of these threads. Integrating them here
#Ukraine's President Zelensky said a few hours ago he is still going to Germany tomorrow for the Munich Security Conference. Whether this is supposed to promote calm or what is unclear; it's a hell of a time for him to leave his capital.
Yesterday 25 June 2021 was the 25th anniversary of #Alkhobar bombing in #SaudiArabia that killed 19 #US servicemen, injured 500+ from several nationalities, incl #Saudis #Pakistanis #Egyptians. Marked a shift for #Iran #IRGC's ops inside #KSA; close to ARAMCO & a major mil base.
#Reflection // Is the missile attack on the #Israeli cargo ship, part of the #Iranian negotiations for the nuclear agreement?! Why do you think it happened now? This is not the first attack, It is the 4th attack this week! 1/6
#Iran could sink the ship. It didn’t happen as the Iranians have a ladder of ranks, they are in a trap, if they raise flames they will snatch. Meanwhile they must say that their honor hasn’t been trampled in vain. They are facing the White House, it is part of negotiations. 2/6
#Iran spoke in an event English, not Hebrew. In the last week they attacked three #American bases in Iraq. The message to @POTUS is: If you do not be flexible, we will strengthen #terrorist acts. Go back to the previous deal then can we get the money & remove the sanctions. 3/6
Actually, the #Pensacolashooter was a sociopathic #Saudi in the US with the intent of murder and obtaining flight training as cover.
The 911 terrorists were in the USA for flight training. How quickly we forget.

Since 911 US aviators have been subjected to strict regulations and procedures. We must be constantly vigilant, file special flight plans and cannot fly in or near many places due to security.
This because #Saudis trained and flew planes into buildings.

Why do the Saudis get a pass?
Why are they not subject to strict background checks before being allowed access to our military facilities?
Why do we sell them weapons?
Why do we buy their oil?

JUST IN: “The #Iran|ian regime is waging a deliberate campaign to destabilize the #MiddleEast” per @EsperDoD, w/@thejointstaff Chairman Gen Joseph Dunford
“All indications are #Iran was responsible for the attack” on #Saudi oil facilities
“All indications are #Iran was responsible for the attack” on #Saudi oil facilities
“The weapon used in the attack were Iranian produced and were not launched from #Yemen as initially claimed” per @EsperDoD
“To prevent further escalation, #SaudiArabia requested int’l support“ Per @EsperDoD “The president has approved deployment of US Forces...primarily focused on air and missile defense. We will also work to accelerate the delivery of military equipment”
In a rare media apperance Head of #Russia's Foreign Intelligence (SVR) Sergey Naryshkin said his Service collecting info on may be behind attacks on #SaudiAramco Saudi oil refineries but this far has no "ultimate conclusions" thus "cannot make any conclusions" for now.
Meanwhile @mod_russia doubles down on criticism of #US air-defences for #Saudis.
High-level official told #Russia/n media 2day that #Moscow knows Saudi northern border protected by 88 Patriots (36 are PAC-2, 52 PAC-3s) + 3 American destroyers armed w 100 SM-2 missiles in the Gulf

@mod_russia The official continued: "The question is how this powerful air-defense system could have missed dozen of drones & cruise missiles? One reason only: Well-advertised American systems don't meet the stated technical characteristics & can't deal w/ these types of threats."

1. While many foreign observers praised @Rob_Malley's op-ed in @nytimes, anyone who KNOWS Yemen will find it one-sided. The op-ed does a gross disservice to #Yemen despite good intentions.
At times I thought the op-ed was either naive or deliberately misleading. Here's why:

2. @Rob_Malley gives a narrow view of #Yemen's conflict and re-hashes #Houthis' narrative when he limits the conflict as "#KSA vs. Houthi". He is not inaccurate per se but deliberately selective, ignoring Houthis' overthrow of UN-backed government as a root cause of conflict.
