On this day exactly 100 years ago, a total of 3 thousand barefooted Yemeni pilgrims were slaughtered in the Tanomah Valley in Saudi Arabia, as they were on their way to perform the compulsory Islamic Hajj. Image
Rogue wahhabists in the hills and on horseback opened fire with British-supplied weaponry. They cut off the heads of those that survived the initial shootout, and chased after the pilgrims that were fleeing the massacre.
The Tanomah massacre of 1920 is one of the darkest chapters of the history between Saudi Arabia and Yemen. The Saudis have never treated the Yemeni people right. What is happening right now can be traced back to the Tanomah valley massacre 100 years ago.

#STATEMENT: From the Yemeni Media Union & the Yemeni Ministry of Information to the free people of the world:
1) "The Yemeni people have been exposed to horrific massacres committed by the Saudi-Emirati-American aggression against civilians, as the aggression deliberately cut off the internet and communications through the bombardment of the only window to the world wide web, affecting-
2) the entirety of the Republic of Yemen.

The current scene in #Yemen is beyond tragic, as the crimes continue to mount. It is a massacre, a crime, a major sin committed against a defenseless people by the Saudi-American-Emirati aggression.

At around 22:50 Sana'a time, the entire country of #Yemen went dark. Saudi bombardment of Hodeidah had left 4 children killed, up to 20 injured and the headquarters of YemenNet destroyed.

YemenNet supplies the entire country of 29 million people with internet access.
Six hours later, and #Yemen is still without internet access, and thus incapable of communicating with the world. For the Yemenis, the internet is a vital and important tool to communicate the crimes committed against its people to the outside world.
A few hours ago, we heard from credible sources that Sana'a, Yemen's capital, was under heavy bombardment with multiple casualties, and that a detention centre in Yemen's northern province of Saadah had been targeted. Deliberately, as always.

We have recently conducted a questionnaire, to which we ask locals in Yemen three questions:

1• Why are you against aggression?
2• How did it affect you?
3• Why do you support the defensive armed struggle against aggression?

The following are their answers.

#Yemen Image
"I am against aggression because their aggression attacked a sovereign state, and their brutal and unjust aggression killed, displaced, destroyed, shed blood, besieged our people and plundered Yemen’s wealth."

- Mohammad,
Civil engineer, Sana'a Image
"It is logical for any person to refuse an attack against him and his homeland. Also, the history of the Saudi Kingdom is known for violating the sovereignty of Yemen for decades."

Yesterday at 8pm Sana'a time, the spokesperson of the Yemeni Armed Forces Yahya Sare'e revealed previously-undisclosed documents that details Israel's heavy involvement in Yemen's internal affairs.

In this thread, we are going to explain each revealed document:
Document 1: The National Security Agency of Yemen filed the visit of then-advisor to the Israeli FM Bruce Kashdan on July 14th 2007.

During his short stay, Bruce Kashdan met with several officials of the former Saleh-regime. ImageImage
The now disclosed document also further states that Kashdan's 2007 visit was the second visit after 2005. The document also details that the visit of Kashdan came on the invitation of the Saleh-regime in collaboration with the Emirati-regime. Image

Exerpts from the speech of His Excellency Mahdi Mohammad Al-Mashat, President of the Republic, on the Occassion of the 6th Anniversary of the Glorious Yemeni People's Revolution of September 21st: Image
"The September 21st Revolution is here to stay, and the hopes of our dear people were accelerated with it". Image
The September 21st Revolution was characterized by being a patriotic face and hand, patriotism of leadership and decision-making. No one from outside Yemen was part of it or had any say in its decision". Image

We work as a third-party intermediary for organisations of interest or public personas if they want to get in touch with local Yemeni authorities, we produce multimedia content to explain the viewpoint of the Yemeni majority and a lot more.
