Soldiers from D Company of The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, 5th Battalion The Royal Regiment of Scotland, and officers from the Afghan National Police, are inserted into the area by two CH-47 Chinooks.
The Houthis have killed nine British fighters during a special operation in the southern Saudi province of Najran, the Yemeni group’s media wing revealed on February 23.
“The slain British fighters were about to lead several attacks by the mercenaries on the [Saudi-Yemeni] border,” the Houthis’ media wing quoted a military source as saying.
The Houthis didn’t clarify if the alleged British fighters were service members of the British Armed Forces or simply contractors hired by the Saudi-led coalition. The militaries of Saudi Arabia and the UAE are known for employing many foreign contractors.
If the incident is confirmed, this will be the second time British personnel came under attack in Yemen this year. A week ago, the Express revealed that two service members of the British Special Air Service (SAS) were injured in a roadside bomb blast while they were conducting a top-secret humanitarian mission in central Yemen.
The UK is one of the main supporters of the Saudi-led coalition. According to several reports, the kingdom supplied the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF), which is accused of war crimes, with cluster bombs and spare parts for its British-made warplanes. Despite an international criticism, the UK is still supporting the coalition’s war on the Houthis.
Yup, that’s one flaw inherit with the mercenary business model. The pay can be very good, if you survive for long enough to spend it. Because the guys you’re going to shoot at can shoot back.
The limey gits are the most treacherous scum on earth, they mostly use Nepalese Gurkha midgets as mercenaries who are being sent to Yemen after all the Arabs and Africans pulled out leaving the Saudi cowards on their own. The Zionists have been training 5,000 Colombian and Gurkha mercenaries in Occupied Negev desert for a rip off cost of $2 BILLION which the Saudis have paid. The 9 “British” were mostly Nepalese cannon fodder serving their imperialist racist masters. Like in Afghanistan the little Gurkhas have not fared well against the battle hardened Ansarollah. Killing docile Indian coolies for the Raj is one thing, fighting a warlike khat chewing sandal wearing Zaidi Shia kids who love to fight is another.
Sad news for British fighters fighting of the KSA Vermin, the tribe or a few shekels from the US.
Sad news? The war in Yemen is for Britain. KSA, and the rest of the Gulf monarchies, are nothing but British puppets.

UK government needs to own this.
and why the heck were these brits in yemen at all. it’s a saudi issue and not a british.
No, it always was a BP/Chevron war.
Virtually all the wars of the past centuries were instigated by Britain and/or had the British fingerprint. The third war in a century in Yemen isn’t any different. Saudi Arabia is nothing but a puppet.

From Twitter:
Its like the saudis are throwing everything they have got at the houthis.
The Saudis throwing the British, I like it.
The Houthis are liars.
I don’t think the Houthis have a monopoly on lying
Nope, only Jews do historically, followed by Limey Gits and Moronic Americunts. True FACT!
Not just the Houthis.
When Iranian troops killed around a dozen British SAS in Syria, the UK said they were killed in Afghanistan. PM Cameron went berserk talking of war crimes etc, but the real war crime was SAS killing Syrians.
I seriously doubt the Iranians would be capable of killing 12 SAS soldiers!
Well you are wrong, yes they are the best of the best, but they were holed up in a building, and the Iranians used heavy machine guns and mortars.
Nobody is invincible.
Aka there was no evidence for your fairytale
Lol
Americunt losers crying and kneeling at Iranian feet :)

And crying, I would not have believed they were such chicken shits if I hadn’t seen it.
Not only are they cry baby cowards, but the greedy cry babies took bags full of goodies and gifts from Iran when they were kicked out. Even their health improved as they were fed good Persian food in captivity. They were even given new suits which the shameless scum displayed proudly.

Hello… why Iranians not capable of killing SAS soldiers?
Are they superhuman?
If they are shot at even by a 10 year old … the bullet still kills if one is in the wrong place or pulled the trigger too slow.
You are so biased.

Similar to what the IDF said about Hezbollah before crying a river of tears in 2006.

Let me refresh your memory
why… are they bullet proof?
Bravo.
re.. “… this will be the second time British personnel came under attack in Yemen this year.

humanitarian mission???… oh please spare us the crap!
Yes, that one made me laugh too. Only the Brits would put out something that stupid.

Shameless Brit gits munching good Persian food after surrendering in the Persian Gulf.
The faggot Brits have SAS teams on the ground in Yemen providing intel and targeting info to the Saudi scum and mercenaries. They most stay around Aden and have avoided casualties, but are now sending Gurkhas into Northern Yemen. The were the ones that were ambushed by the Ansarollah last week.
Taking the fight to the enemy is the way to win, and the enemy is in London and Washington.
It’s about the oil, BP and Chevron are the real enemy, and their assets are vulnerable throughout the world.
All wars are about money.
I have no sympathy with British mercenary casualties fighting for the UAE. It’s a pity we can’t hand over the likes of Cameron,Fallon, Hammond, Hunt, Williamson and May the USA Saudi Israeli arse lickers and international law breakers to the Houti freedom fighters.They should all suffer for the thousands of death’s they are responsible for in Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemin, Barain and the Ukraine. But no, they will walk away with impunity or will someone make a move and show them they are not untouchable.The next war will be fought on European soil, well away from the USA who will pick over what is left in the way of assets. We will have experienced the delight’s of ‘Carpet Bombing’ and the rest of the world will ignore us as we have ignored the terrors of Western backed attacks on poorly defended Nations. It will serve us right for not rising up and putting an end to these two Colonial Corporate, Right Wing, Genocidal government’s, the USA and the UK whose policies of regime change seems to know no bounds.
Thousands of deaths… ?, a million and a half deaths just in Iraq alone never mind all the other places destroyed by the scum.
All mercenaries are scum. All dead men walking with no rights under the Geneva Conventions
Maybe Nikki Haley will make a special guest appearance at the UN and give a lecture on how this is another example of Iranian sponsored terrorism. Pompeo would do it but he’s busy conducting another illegal operation against Venezuela.
Ordinary, decent Britons will not miss these thuggish mercenaries. Great job, Yemenis!
SAS are the worlds foremost terrorist. ISIS are just a watered down version of the UK’s-SAS.
Amateurish and unprofessional by the Houthis, and against all International rules of order.
they went out there to take that land by force they died nuff said these are the same fcks who murdered over a million iraqi civs with no proof and still no proof of wmd’s i say they deserve to die just for that alone!!and i am sure they want to kill off a another million civs for their lizard queen
live by the sword ye shall die by the sword slave
Colonial Wars are just Vomiting !
YEMEN : pour une énorme goutte de pétrole *****
https://www.agoravox.fr/tribune-libre/article/yemen-pour-une-enorme-goutte-de-201679
top secret HUMANITARIAN mission….. WTF is SF writing :)
I understand that the SAS killed in Yemen were bringing much needed aid supplies to Yemeni’s.
It was a selection of Toothpaste and Tampax I think and all the chatter about hunting for Houthi missile launch sites are all lies and propaganda :)
We need to keep this a secret, Wolfgang, as the UK parliament has not voted to send British troops to Yemen :)
the UK is a truly useless country that contributes nothing but bullying, death, colonialism, etc.
now what the fck are these brits doing on the ground out there anyway??i know what ur doing lizard queen no fckn dice freak you ain’t having the gulf of aden and before yrs end you will willingly leave all occupied areas of the world and give the lands back to ALL the tribes you stole our lands off and you will NOT have yemen you child abusing freaks!!!and if u continue to put boots on the ground out there your white folk will continue to die for you have lost all blessings when it comes to war and you will not take anymore brown folks lands freaks and if you try ye shall die at the hands of the holy warriors of Yemen!!
