Allright, time for me to go through the mud.
Based on satellite imagery I'd marked this quarry as an underground base, and tweeted is out as such.
I'm fairly certain Centcom doesn't take their targeting data from Twitter, but this still is a very severe mistake.

Privately I had it marked as a *possible* underground base, a category more for private use, to check up on these sites when there's new imagery. I should have never posted it.
The fact that I took in from someone else who had posted it is not an excuse.

To start I have made two donations, one to MSF and one the Yemen Data Project, totaling 500 euros,

So now to improve and learn from on this:
No more posting about 'possible' bases. Look for more concrete signs of these bases, most notably spoil heaps, present at even smaller bases, but not really here.

Secondly: look more at location. None of the Houthis' other new bases have been built this near to residences, should have been another big warning sign.

Thirdly: Shape of excavation, for an underground base you go into the mountain, this is more taking a chunk out of it.
Fourthly: Put more weight one alternative explanations, even when they seem unlikely to me.

Fifthly: Raise my standard of proof, I want information on this page to be reliable.
I sincerely apologize for this error in my judgement, and it will never be my intention to spread false information here or elsewhere.
