TEHRAN (FNA)- A senior official of Yemen’s Ansarullah Movement confirmed the Sunday downing of a Saudi jet by Yemeni troops in the capital city of Sana’a. According to media reports, a ranking official of the movement made the announcement on the condition of anonymity on Sunday, adding that the search for the pilot of the F-16 fighter jet was still underway. The Yemeni troops shot down the Saudi jet in the district of Bani Harith, Northern Sana’a, late on Saturday while it was pounding residential areas as well as an air base in Dailami. Saudi Arabia has been bombing Yemen in the last 60 days to bring its ally, fugitive president Mansour Hadi, back to power. The airstrikes have killed, at least, 3,897 Yemenis, according to FNA’s independent tally. According to a recent report by Freedom House Foundation, most of the victims of the deadly Al Saud campaign are civilians, including a large number of women and children. Thousands of residential buildings have been destroyed, and hundreds of civil and public facilities were reduced to rubble as a result of the bombardments by Saudi warplanes on the Yemeni cities and towns, the group said.

TEHRAN (FNA)- Informed sources in Saudi Arabia blamed Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for the Friday terrorist attack in a Shiite mosque in the Eastern province of Qatif. Al-Wae’y news website quoted informed sources as saying that Mohammed bin Salman has ordered the suicide blast inside a mosque in Saudi Arabia’s Eastern province. The website reported that this was the third attack on the Shiites in the past few months, describing it as a repercussion of the war on Yemen and increased divisive remarks by the Saudi clerics against the Shiites. Prince Mohammed bin Salman plays the main role in the war against Yemen, the website said, adding that the Friday attack was carried out at the order of the Saudi deputy crown prince to prevent any Shiite movement and possible protests. At least 21 people lost their lives and 97 others sustained injuries in a bomb attack carried out by the Takfiri ISIL terrorist group against a Shiite mosque in Saudi Arabia’s Eastern Province. The figures were announced by Saudi Health Minister Khalid al-Faleh on Friday following the attack, which took place at Imam Ali (PBUH) Mosque in the village of al-Qadeeh, located in the oil-rich kingdom’s Qatif district and more than 420 kilometers (260 miles) East of the capital, Riyadh. A bomber reportedly blew himself up in the mosque as more than 150 people had gathered for Friday prayers. Later in the day, the Takfiri ISIL terrorist group claimed responsibility for the attack.

“The entire Al Saud are responsible for the crimes committed in Yemen and they should be tried,” Larijani told reporters in Tehran on Sunday. He also reiterated that the UK, France and the US that have supplied the Saudi regime with weapons and equipment for the war on the Yemeni people are accomplices to the crime. Larijani reiterated that the Yemeni nation will win the war against the Saudi aggressors, and said the Yemenis will win the war against the Saudis the same way that people in Southern Lebanon and Gaza gained victory against Israel in the last few years. Earlier this month, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei underscored that the recent Saudi-led aggression against Yemen has been a strategic mistake, and warned that Riyadh’s aggression will backfire on the Al Saud regime soon. “The Saudis committed a big mistake in Yemen and the impacts of the crimes they have committed will certainly backfire on them,” Ayatollah Khamenei said in a meeting with the visiting Iraqi President Fouad Massoum on May 13. Ayatollah Khamenei further called the logic used by Saudi Arabia to attack Yemen as “silly”, saying “They (the Saudis) attacked Yemen based on a request by the fugitive and resigned (former) president of Yemen (Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi) who betrayed his country under the most sensitive conditions,” Ayatollah Khamenei further added. Saudi Arabia has been bombing Yemen in the last 60 days to bring its ally, fugitive president Mansour Hadi, back to power. The airstrikes have killed, at least, 3,897 Yemenis, according to FNA’s independent tally. According to a recent report by Freedom House Foundation, most of the victims of the deadly Al Saud campaign are civilians, including a large number of women and children. Thousands of residential buildings have been destroyed, and hundreds of civil and public facilities were reduced to rubble as a result of the bombardments by Saudi warplanes on the Yemeni cities and towns, the group said.
