State Department

Rebels reportedly seize US vehicles after Yemen embassy closes

Armed rebels in Yemen’s capital of Sanaa reportedly seized U.S. embassy vehicles Wednesday after diplomats fled the country over growing unrest.

Members of the embassy staff told Reuters that more than 20 vehicles were taken by Iran-linked Shiite Houthi rebels after the Americans left Sanaa’s airport.

Late Tuesday, the State Department announced that the U.S. Embassy in Yemen had been closed and evacuated after much of the country was taken over by Shiite rebels last month.

Hours later, Britain and France followed suit and ordered their citizens to leave Yemen as soon as possible.

The U.S. embassy had already been operating with severely reduced staff for several weeks. State Department spokesman Jen Psaki said remaining diplomatic personnel had been relocated "due to the ongoing political instability and the uncertain security situation."

Yemen has been in crisis for months, with Houthi rebels besieging the capital and then taking control and forcing the resignation of the U.S. and Saudi-backed president and his government.

"The security situation in Yemen has continued to deteriorate over recent days," U.K. Minister for the Middle East Tobias Ellwood said in a statement. "Regrettably we now judge that our embassy staff and premises are at increased risk." Ellwood also urged all British citizens still in Yemen to "leave immediately."

In a statement on its website, the French Embassy said it would close as of Friday.

The embassy closures were announced as Houthi rebels, armed with Kalashnikov assault rifles and dressed in police uniforms and civilian clothes, patrolled the main boulevards of the capital, Sanaa, some in pickup trucks mounted with anti-aircraft guns.

Scattered protests could be seen in the city, with demonstrators denouncing the Houthis for taking power and dissolving parliament. Shops closed early and helicopters also hovered overhead.

Houthis attacked one demonstration, stabbing and beating protesters trying to reach the local United Nations office, witnesses said. The rebels detained a number of people as well, they said.

Earlier Tuesday, U.S. officials told the Associated Press that the embassy closure would not affect ongoing operations against the terror group Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP).

"The United States remains firmly committed to supporting all Yemenis who continue to work toward a peaceful, prosperous and unified Yemen," Psaki said. "We will explore options for a return to Sanaa when the situation on the ground improves."

The State Department also issued a travel warning advising U.S. citizens to defer travel to Yemen and urging U.S. citizens currently living in Yemen to depart.

...a random evacuation is called for in this situation.

So does this mean the IRGC/Qods Force have achieved "break in" with Yemen to more easily penetrate Saudi?

Hell forget the drones. Just turn the whole damn peninsula into a glass parking lot. :)

I'm still wondering why the USMC Weapons were left behind. Also what else was left behind!!

Desert Storm. We arrive at the American Embassy...... see these trash barrels full of cut up weapons.....American weapons destroyed before the Iraqis got there I'm sure. The only thing destroyed was paperwork.....;)

If they left weapons behind and they were not destroyed they were in a big hurry.......

They should have also destroyed the embassy vehicles. Thermite at the very least.

But I guess the State Department thinks the "rebels" will give them back, if asked nicely.:D

They should have disabled the vehicles and placed trackers on them...

5 lbs of C-4 under the drivers seat would have done the job nicely.....

Lets hope your right and that they at least placed trackers.

But I think you may be expecting to much. The Station Chief, if worth their salt, would probably have thought about it, but then he/she would probably have been overruled by the Ambassador.

Wait and see, I guess. :munchin

Well hell Ya! But that is all 18Cs mentalities. "There arent too many problems, that can be solved with the appropriate application of explosives.":D

Or a snipers well placed bullet.......:munchin

Why even talk to the ambassador? Just tag them and tell him about it later. Like when it comes time to pinpoint their locations to drop a little "How-do-you-do?" onto the new owners' garage.

It's Shiites vs. Sunnis. Fanatical "believers" that can't get along even under allah. Saudi Arabia (Sunni) now has Shiite fanaticists on its border. Iran and its Shiite fanaticism might well establish the dreaded Muslim "Caliphate."

To me it seems lose/lose:

Houthi Shia minority hold onto power and it's lose for Saudi in Iran having access to penetrating Saudi.

Houthi Shia minority get tossed by Sunni majority and it turns into a Civil War in Yeme then ungoverned spaces will grow bigger/faster for IS and other filth to fester and penetrate Saudi.

I reckon this all ties in together with Syria/Iraq.

Stack the bodies high now, or stack the bodies higher than skyscrapers later.

I wonder who the Saudis will pay to stack the bodies higher later, Pakistan?

The dangerously naive leftist hipsters who think human development has paralleled technological development are going to need to reboot once they see the genocide kick into high gear.

There is no Moore's Law for human progressive ideology.

But Moore's Law has certainly facilitated human ability to project violence.
