#Saudi Sheikh Ibrahim al-Muhamid criticizes the Palestinian resistance groups: What is happening in #Gaza is jihad for the sake of Satan, and it's fitna, not legitimate fighting!

That is the best proof that #KSA and their bastard children, #Taliban. #AlQaeda and #ISIS are friends of #Israel and never fight against them.

#Saudi media outlet Asharq News reports that a PMC #Wagner Group unit was "besieged" in #Mali near the #Niger border by an #Al_Qaeda-linked terrorist cell.

Al-Qaeda has clashed several times this year with Wagnerite mercenaries deployed in Mali, with Al-Qaeda even claiming at one point to have captured a mercenary (no photographic evidence was ever shown).

It is not known whether this was a patrol, since there is considerable #jihadist activity on the Mali-Niger border, or whether these forces were going to Niger to reinforce the junta in the face of a possible #ECOWAS military intervention.

The Sudanese Air Force is continuing to conduct #Airstrikes against the Positions of the Rapid Support Force (RSF) that are in or near Khartoum International Airport in the Sudanese Capital; these Airstrikes come as it was said the U.S/Coalition Evacuation Operation was going to begin soon and that it would be utilizing this Airport.

It was assumed that the evacuation of employees of the diplomatic missions of the United States , Great Britain , #France and China from Sudan would pass through the #Khartoum airport. However, the United States embassy said that it was unsafe to conduct a coordinated evacuation at the moment due to the ongoing fighting and the active work of air defense and aviation.

The evacuation of citizens and embassies of $Jordan , #Libya , #Saudi
Arabia and the #UAE passes through Port Sudan , which is already beginning to receive warships from other countries. According to the Saudi Foreign Ministry, more than 150 people have already been successfully evacuated, including citizens of Saudi Arabia, #Kuwait, #Qatar, UAE, #Egypt, #Tunisia, #Pakistan, #India, #Bulgaria, #Bangladesh, the #Philippines, #Canada and #BurkinaFaso.

The Chinese state calls the Saudi embassy to discuss the possibility of saving Chinese citizens in Sudan through Saudi army ships.

Saudi-Omani delegation to hold ceasefire talks with Yemen's Houthis in Sanaa

#Saudi and Omani envoys are planning to visit Yemen's capital Sanaa next week to negotiate a permanent ceasefire deal with #Iran-aligned #Houthi officials and end an eight-year-old conflict there, two people involved in the talks said.

The move signals that regional rifts are easing after rivals #SaudiArabia and Iran agreed to restore relations last month following years of hostility and backing opposite sides in Middle Eastern conflicts, including Yemen.

Spreading lies and stories about victims of IRI is coming to Mastodon as well.

The tragic death of Aida Rostami after her capture by regime forces has angered people inside and outside Iran.

As per latest excuse, the regime told the family of her that she had fell from an overpass bridge and died. Even saying that she had committed suicide.

But family members and those who examined her body say that there were signs of torture visible and the cause of death was very possibly result of those tortures.

The case have been used by #Saudi Financed Persian TV channel #iraninternational who (without any source) claiming that one of her eyes was removed.

The story now has been shared by 1000s without any reliable source backing it and Mr. Karimi who is posting stories about Iran on. Mastodon is also sharing it and refered to a source that iwas referring to IA as source for the claim (all without any links).

Her Wikipedia page does not have any references to the IA claim.

IA was also the source of the famous fake story about the "death sentence of 1500 protesters" that the Canadian PM retweeted

Mick Wallace : We rightly have a problem with Russia terrorising Ukrainians. Why have we no problem with #US #NATO terrorising people of #Afghanistan #Iraq #Libya ? Or no problem with US + #EU helping #Saudi #UAE terrorise #Yemen ? Why have we no problem with #Israel terrorising #Palestinians ?

They are not "civilized" like Ukrainians./facepalm

Britain’s Covert War in Yemen

#Britain ’s #Covert #War in #Yemen #UK #UN #politics

"The brutal war in Yemen, which has raged since 2015, is the world’s worst #humanitarian #disaster . A delicate truce since April has reduced some of the horror, but that deal seems to be breaking down.

It should be time to reflect about who, on all sides of the conflict, including in Britain, might be indicted for #war #crimes . Nearly 9,000 civilians have been killed in over 25,000 mainly #Saudi air strikes which have been facilitated by Britain’s Royal Air Force. Many more tens of thousands have been killed in the conflict.

The U.N. has repeatedly alleged the commission of war crimes but no Saudi, Briton or Yemeni has been held to account, nor is likely to be. Tragically, it is history repeating itself, and the price once again is being paid by ordinary Yemenis."
