Yemen Shiite Houthis Fight Salafists Near Saudi Arabia’s Border

Nov. 27 (Bloomberg) -- Yemen’s Shiite Muslim Houthis killed 24 Salafist Sunni Muslims yesterday after a week of sporadic fighting between the two religious communities in the north of the country near the border with Saudi Arabia.

The Houthis attacked the Dar al-Hadith religious school in the Dammaj region in Saada, according to Abdulhamid al-Hajouri, the principal of the school. About 60 Salafists, who are considered conservative Sunni Muslims, were wounded in the clashes, Abu Ismail, spokesman for the group in Dammaj, said in a phone interview today. Several Houthi fighters were also killed and wounded, Dhaifallah al-Shami, a leader of the Shiite group, said.

The fighting occurred the same week that President Ali Abdullah Saleh signed an agreement to relinquish power to Vice President Abdurabu Mansur Hadi. Saleh and an opposition delegation signed on Nov. 23 a power-transfer agreement brokered by the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council.

The Houthis, so-called because of the family name of their leaders, began fighting the government in the northern province of Saada in 2004. The conflict has in the past drawn in Saudi Arabia, a Sunni Muslim-led monarchy. Saudi Arabia lost more than 100 soldiers in a three-month battle against the Houthis that ended in February 2010.

May Allah Burn these Mushriqeen in this Life and the hereafter for what they are doing.

No Doubt these people are controlled by Iran and Syria since they fear the Sunnah. May Allah help our Brothers in Dammaj and in Syria from these Rafidheehs.

Yesterday was a bloody day in dammaj, Saada.


Two days after signing a peace treaty, Houthis started a military aggression on the mostly unarmed inhabitants of Dammaj.


Houthis used heavy machines and artillery including tanks.

the attack resulted in 22 dead students and 51 wounded. Those wounded students are still bleeding until this moment due to the siege imposed by Houthis who have prevented ambulance from going into the markaz. Houthis have also been sniping at anyone who walks out in the markaz to go to the Masjid or anyone who tries to collect the dead bodies or treat the wounded.


Some of the dead students were foreign nationals, two Americans, two Indonesians, Two Russians and one Malaysian.


This Houthi assault has forced the students to engage Houthis in a defensive battle and causalities were also reported on Houthis side. The exact number of dead Houthis is unknown but sources said 20 were killed and many were wounded.


Also, the students said they have captured ten Houthis alive.

The students in Dammaj have reported that they saw fire blazing in Houthis tanks and vehicles.


That was not all for Houthis as they have been engaged in fierce fighting by local tribes who were infuriated by their expansionist tactics. Some local sources in Yemen said that more than 150 Houthis were killed by local tribe fighters in a near by area called Hijjah.


Meanwhile, Shaykh Yahya bin Ali Al-Hajooree, the head of darul-hadeeth in dammaj has called yesterday for Jihaad in Dammaj to fend off the aggression of Houthis. He said in an audio that was published online”We were being oppressed under this siege for 40 days. Then came the sniping and the bombarding with heavy artillery. We are not assailants and we are not prepared to run away. We did our best and tried to send delegations but Houthis have refused but to seize our place, our wealth and our women”.


He then added that waging Jihaad against Houthis is one of the greatest deeds because they are transgressors.

I just read an update, more than 20 huffaz were killed by the houthis (la'natullah 'alaihim) with different kinds of weapon, and after they were killed the houthis destroyed their faces with strong acid then damaged their bodies further (Allahul musta'aan).

This shows their deep hatred towards the us sunnis, especially the salafis.
