American mercenaries hired by UAE to kill in Yemen | BBC News

Published

on



American mercenaries, hired by the UAE to kill in Yemen, have spoken candidly on camera for the first time in an investigation by BBC Arabic.

At a time when Houthi attacks on Red Sea shipping have highlighted the international dimensions of the Yemeni conflict, the investigation also reveals how US mercenaries trained Emirati officers to kill the UAE’s political enemies in Yemen.

These extra-judicial killings, conducted in the name of counter-terrorism, started in 2015 and continue to this day.

    With all the confidence these guys have spewing supposedly classified info, am made to believe their bosses are at the helm of the global political scene. In the eyes of their masters, these guys are risking it all to go where no sane military can go under the guise of fighting the so called war on terrorism.

    The United States imported roughly 456,000 barrels of crude oil per day from Saudi Arabia in 2022. Figures have notably decreased since 2000, while crude oil imports of Canada have increased in the same time period. Dec 13, 2023.

    The groundwork of Aden Refinery Company (initially know as British Petroleum Company) was started on November 1, 1952.
    It was originally designed to refine about 5 million tons of crude oil every year. The refinery was inaugurated by her majesty Queen Elezabeth –II on July, 1954. Subsequently, the Aden Refinery was linked to Aden Bunkering facilities in Aden harbor through 19 miles long pipelines to supply bunkering fuels to the ships visiting Aden harbour.
    The refinery was later upgraded to 8 million tons capacity, in the sixties.
    In May 1977 B.P. handed over the refinery to the government of Yemen. Since that date the refinery operates under the name of Aden Refinery Company (ARC). In accordance of law number 15 for 1977.

    Port of Aden – OIL HARBOUR
    Aden Refinery Company and the oil harbour were constructed in the mid-1950’s to receive and refine oil from other countries and provide the various grades of fuel needed by ships bunkering at the port, underpinning Aden’s growing success as a ‘middle distance’ bunkering point between Europe and the sub-Continent and Far East.
    Aden Refinery Company (ARC) handled around 12 million MT of crude and refined products up to 2014, with oil products used in Yemen and exported by tankers to other ports in the country. Imports in 2014 were 7.5 million MT and exports 4.5 million MT. From 2015 onwards, ARC has been handling imports and exports of refined products only..

    Yemen's Aden oil refinery resumed operations, after shutting down for more than a year due to political unrest…

    What did Iraq, Syria, Libya or Yemen ever do to the world but flood with refugees fleeing zones torn up by Westerners?
    This beefcake has some nerve. Won'tbe surprised if they chop him up.

    You should correct the title of the video to "American Assassins hired by the UAE" – the guy in the interview literally said it himself that they kill and voila. The background check was bs as he said the contrary through the video.

    Civilians being bad guys?😂😂😂😂😂

    Killing civilians in other's countries, invading their countries, and then calling yourself a good guy when you're a paid mercenary.

    Maybe these people watch too much Hollywood films like the Expendables and taking civilian lives in other's countries is simply akin to a shoot em up game.

Ukraine accuses Putin of breaking promise to Trump with airstrikes on infrastructure | BBC News

Published

on



Russia and Ukraine launched air attacks that damaged each other’s infrastructure, just hours after Vladimir Putin said Russia would stop targeting Ukrainian energy sites.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia’s targets included hospitals. He said the Russian leader had in effect rejected a comprehensive ceasefire in his phone talks with US President Donald Trump.

Putin told Trump a full ceasefire would only work if Ukraine’s allies stopped giving military assistance – a condition Ukraine’s European allies have previously rejected.

Officials in the southern Russian region of Krasnodar said that a Ukrainian drone attack sparked a small fire at an oil depot. Within hours of Putin agreeing to halt attacks on energy infrastructure, Zelensky said there had been “hits, specifically on civilian infrastructure”, including a hospital in Sumy.

The region’s government posted footage of the destruction, in which smoke can be seen rising from the caved-in hospital wing. Officials have since said that there had been no casualties.

Russian state media has reported the Trump-Putin phone call as a victory for their country, with President Putin rejecting calls for a 30-day ceasefire and restating previous conditions.
