Re: #37 - Main news thread - conflicts, terrorism, crisis from around the globe
At least five Saudi Arabian soldiers were killed in two days near the kingdom’s border with war-torn Yemen, the official SPA news agency reported Sunday.
SPA did not provide details about the circumstances of the deaths but said the soldiers lost their lives in the southern Jizan region.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.trtworld.com/middle-east/at-least-five-saudi-soldiers-killed-near-yemen-border-31080/amp
A lot of Saudi soldiers being killed in jizan recently that makes it about a 100 saudi soldiers killed in the last 2 weeks.

Russia Dominated Syria’s War. Now It’s Sending Mercenaries to Libya.
http://archive.is/UTX4s
►good recap of the giant golden goose hegemon clusterfuck known as Libya..... still pumping out 1.3Mbpd (Field Marshall General Haftar is called 'Mr. Hifter' lol )
Turk vs Chinese Dronescasualties at the Aziziya field hospital south of Tripoli used to arrive with gaping wounds and shattered limbs, victims of the haphazard artillery fire that has defined battles among Libyan militias. But now medics say they are seeing something new: narrow holes in a head or a torso left by bullets that kill instantly and never exit the body.
It is the work, Libyan fighters say, of Russian mercenaries, including skilled snipers. The lack of an exit wound is a signature of the ammunition used by the same Russian mercenaries elsewhere.
The conflict has become a bipolar combination of the primitive and futuristic. Turkey and the Emirates have turned Libya into the first war fought primarily by clashing fleets of armed drones.
The United Nations estimates that during the past six months, the two sides have conducted more than 900 drone missions.
When Mr. Hifter began his assault on Tripoli in April, his biggest advantage was the use of armed drones:
The United Arab Emirates furnished Chinese-made Wing Loong drones, purchased for $2 million each.
Fighters have learned to listen for the whirring noise and hide as the drones approach. They say Mr. Hifter’s forces can fly only three drones at a time, and that each drone fires a maximum of eight missiles. Each must then disappear to reload — allowing the fighters a chance to regain lost ground.
Realizing that the drones target heat sources, the fighters also learned to hide more effectively, including by refraining from smoking.
“The drone can see a fighter smoking a cigarette inside a car,”.
In May, the Tripoli government began buying drones from Turkey:
The Bayraktar TB2 sold for $5 million each and is manufactured by the family business of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s son-in-law, Selcuk Bayraktar.
“The Turks saved us just in time,”
But on the ground, the war is between militias with fewer than 400 fighters typically engaged on both sides at any time.
The fighting happens almost exclusively in a handful of deserted districts on the southern outskirts of Tripoli, while in neighborhoods just a few miles away, streets are clogged with civilian traffic and espresso bars bustle amid heaps of uncollected garbage.
“There is a huge discrepancy between the Libyan fighting on the ground and the advanced technology in the air from the meddling foreign powers,” said Emad Badi, a Libyan scholar at the Middle East Institute who visited the front in July. “It’s like they are different worlds.”
On a recent tour of the front-line district of Ain Zara, a Tripoli militia officer, Muhammad el-Delawi, passed out stacks of cash to fighters in T-shirts or mismatched camouflage uniforms, some in tennis shoes or sandals, others only with bare feet. The twisted wreckage of an ambulance hit by a drone missile sat by the side of the road.
The arrival of the Russian snipers is already transforming the war, Mr. el-Delawi said, recounting the deaths of nine of his fighters the previous day — one of them shot in the eye.
“The bullet was as long as a finger,” he said.
Given the amateurish nature of the ground fighting, some diplomats said, the arrival of 200 Russian professionals could have an outsized impact.
A spokesman for Mr. Hifter’s forces did not respond to a request for comment.
Mr. Hifter, 75, was a former army general under Colonel el-Qaddafi who defected and lived in Northern Virginia as a C.I.A. client for more than a decade. Returning to Libya in 2011, he sought but failed to win a leading role in the uprising.
Five years ago, he vowed to rule Libya as a new military strongman, but his progress has been halting. His limited success has depended heavily on his regional backers and, until now, Russia appeared to have hedged its bets.
The Kremlin has maintained contacts with the authorities in Tripoli as well as with former el-Qaddafi officials, even as its support for Mr. Hifter has been vital and growing.
Russia has printed millions of dollars’ worth of Libyan bank notes and shipped them to Mr. Hifter. By 2015, Russia had set up a base in western Egypt to help provide technical support and repair equipment, according to Western diplomats. By last year, Russia had also sent at least a handful of military advisers to Mr. Hifter’s forces in Benghazi.
Last November, Mr. Hifter was filmed at a table in Moscow with both the Russian defense minister and the head of the Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, the close ally of Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin. Mr. Prigozhin is under indictment in the United States for involvement in the internet “troll farm” that sought to influence the 2016 presidential election.
Even though it officially supports the United Nations-recognized government, the United States has largely disengaged.
President Trump has appeared to endorse Mr. Hifter.
Mr. Trump called Mr. Hifter a few days after he began his assault on Tripoli to applaud his “role in fighting against terrorism.”

IRAN: President Rouhani claims Iran will inject over 1000 centrifuges with uranium gas on Wednesday. This is the latest step Iran has taken since the US pulled out of the nuclear deal.
