The op began at dawn when a drone bombed the home of Abdulraoof al- Dhahab. A helo assault then killed everyone inside.
Apache helicopters struck after the drone strikes. One, was a school, a mosque and a medical facility which were all used by Al-Qaeda militants. There were reported to be two training camps in Yakla.

Unverified that Anwar al-Awlaki's widow (who was an al-Dhahab) died with her daughter. That woulds be the last of them, the al-Awlaki's.
a school, a mosque, and a hospital? interesting.
>> al-Qaida militants
I thought Obama defeated al-Qaida — he and the MSM said so.
And now we’re dealing with Obama’s sycophantic thugs running amok around the Country.
Prayers for the soul of this hero and for his family. Prayers for the wounded.
We never got details like this when Obama was President. Is this because Trump is more open about the mission or because the news media wants to destroy Trump by publicizing every U.S. service member death?
I trust they collected good intel, of which I don’t want them to tell us or the media one word! I’ll be happy to infer it between the lines of censored future successful mission reports. Trump’s been in a week and has had his first op. Supposedly it had in the planning for months. How many months did it take O’Bungle to approve the Bin Laden raid? How long ago could he have carried this out?
“In a statement released by the White House, Trump called the raid “successful” and that it resulted in the capture of intelligence that would “assist the U.S. in preventing terrorism against its citizens and people around the world.”
Excellent work!
Rest in Heaven to our soldier. God give peace to his family
OK—This is about the fifth or sixth time this story has been posted.
Are we back to daily body counts now that a Republican once again occupies the White House?
Now that a Republican is in the White House, the body count will be back on the front page.
If she is eight, doesn’t that make her a wife?
> The assault, a Yemeni official said, killed 35 to 40 people in the village.
When you go to war bad things happen.
For terrorists, we need to target them, their families, friends, neighbors and anyone providing them with material or support.
Do not let the roaches hide in these places. Level them....
“The op began at dawn...”
Must’ve been a really high suck factor knowing they’re going in as its getting light.
