Honored Martyr's Story
In the first invasive raid of the Trump administration, the US Navy Seals and Emerati special forces ended up killing at least 59 civilians, mostly women and children. One Navy Seal was also killed. The small village of al-Ghayil in the Yakla region was home to mostly civilians with some militants said to have been associated with Al-Qaeda intermingled. The sloppy raid began with an air assault. As people fled their homes after the air attacks, they were shot at indiscriminately. Salima lived in a large family compound. She and 15 others were killed.
