US, British militaries launch massive retaliatory strike against Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen

By 9News Staff, Associated Press 1:30pm Jan 12, 2024

The US and Britain have launched massive retaliatory airstrikes against Iran-backed Houthi rebels with the help of several countries, including Australia, Joe Biden has announced.

The attacks have used warship-launched Tomahawk missiles and fighter jets, several US officials told The Associated Press.

The military targets included logistical hubs, air defence systems and weapons storage locations, they said.

"Today, at my direction, U.S military forces - together with the United Kingdom and with support from Australia, Bahrain, Canada, and the Netherlands - successfully conducted strikes against a number of targets in Yemen used by Houthi rebels to endanger freedom of navigation in one of the world's most vital waterways," US President Biden said.

"These strikes are in direct response to unprecedented Houthi attacks against international maritime vessels in the Red Sea - including the use of anti-ship ballistic missiles for the first time in history."

Associated Press journalists in Yemen's capital, Sanaa, heard four explosions early Friday local time (late Friday morning AEDT) but saw no sign of warplanes.

Two residents of Hodieda, Amin Ali Saleh and Hani Ahmed, said they heard five strong explosions. Hodieda lies on the Red Sea and is the largest port city controlled by the Houthis.

In a joint statement with Bahrain, Canada, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand, South Korea and the UK and US, the Australian government said the attack was an act of "individual and collective self-defence".

"These precision strikes were intended to disrupt and degrade the capabilities the Houthis use to threaten global trade and the lives of international mariners in one of the world's most critical waterways," the statement said.

"We will not hesitate to defend lives and protect the free flow of commerce in one of the world's most critical waterways in the face of continued threats," it added.

The strikes come after UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak reportedly briefed his cabinet on possible British and US strikes on Houthi rebels in Yemen amid fears of an escalation of the conflict in the Middle East.

Sunak briefed his cabinet of ministers on imminent military intervention this evening, the Times in the UK reported.

The strikes marked the first US military response to what has been a persistent campaign of drone and missile attacks on commercial ships since the start of the Israel-Hamas.

The coordinated military assault comes just a week after the White House and a host of partner nations issued a final warning to the Houthis to cease the attacks or face potential military action.

The officials confirmed the strikes on condition of anonymity to discuss military operations.

The warning appeared to have had at least some short-lived impact, as attacks stopped for several days.

On Tuesday, however, the Houthi rebels fired their largest-ever barrage of drones and missiles targeting shipping in the Red Sea, with US and British ships and American fighter jets responding by shooting down 18 drones, two cruise missiles and an anti-ship missile.

And on Thursday, the Houthis fired an anti-ship ballistic missile into the Gulf of Aden, which was seen by a commercial ship but did not hit the ship.

The rebels, who have carried out 27 attacks involving dozens of drones and missiles just since November 19, said on Thursday that any attack by American forces on its sites in Yemen will spark a fierce military response.

"The response to any American attack will not only be at the level of the operation that was recently carried out with more than 24 drones and several missiles," said Abdel Malek al-Houthi, the group's supreme leader, during an hour-long speech.

"It will be greater than that."

The Houthis say their assaults are aimed at stopping Israel's war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip. But their targets increasingly have little or no connection to Israel and imperil a crucial trade route linking Asia and the Middle East with Europe.

Meanwhile, the UN Security Council passed a resolution on Wednesday that demanded the Houthis immediately cease the attacks and implicitly condemned their weapons supplier, Iran. It was approved by a vote of 11-0 with four abstentions — by Russia, China, Algeria and Mozambique.

Britain's participation in the strikes underscored the Biden administration's effort to use a broad international coalition to battle the Houthis, rather than appear to be going it alone. More than 20 nations are already participating in a US-led maritime mission to increase ship protection in the Red Sea.

US officials for weeks had declined to signal when international patience would run out and they would strike back at the Houthis, even as multiple commercial vessels were struck by missiles and drones, prompting companies to look at rerouting their ships.

On Wednesday, however, US officials again warned of consequences.

"I'm not going to telegraph or preview anything that might happen," Secretary of State Antony Blinken told reporters during a stop in Bahrain.

He said the US has made clear "that if this continues as it did yesterday, there will be consequences. And I'm going to leave it at that."

The Biden administration's reluctance over the past several months to retaliate reflected political sensitivities and stemmed largely from broader worries about upending the shaky truce in Yemen and triggering a wider conflict in the region.

The White House wants to preserve the truce and has been wary of taking action in Yemen that could open up another war front.

Who are the Houthis?

The Houthi movement, also known as Ansarallah (Supporters of God), is one side of the Yemeni civil war that has raged for nearly a decade. It emerged in the 1990s, when its leader, Hussein al-Houthi, launched "Believing Youth," a religious revival movement for a centuries-old subsect of Shia Islam called Zaidism.

The Zaidis ruled Yemen for centuries but were marginalized under the Sunni regime that came to power after the 1962 civil war. Al-Houthi's movement was founded to represent Zaidis and resist radical Sunnism, particularly Wahhabi ideas from Saudi Arabia. His closest followers became known as Houthis.

Why are the Houthis attacking ships in the Red Sea?

While, through a combination of geography and technology, the Houthis may lack the capabilities of Hamas and Hezbollah, their strikes on commercial vessels in the Red Sea may inflict a different sort of pain on Israel and its allies.

The global economy has been served a series of painful reminders of the importance of this narrow stretch of sea, which runs from the Bab-el-Mandeb straits off the coast of Yemen to the Suez Canal in northern Egypt – and through which 12 per cent of global trade flows, including 30 per cent of global container traffic.

In 2021, a ship called the Ever Given ran aground in the Suez Canal, blocking the vital trade artery for nearly a week – holding up as much as US$10 billion in cargo each day – and causing disruptions to global supply chains that lasted far longer.

There are fears that the Houthi drone and missile attacks against commercial vessels, which have occurred almost daily since December 9, could cause an even greater shock to the world economy.

Four of the world's five major shipping firms – Maersk, Hapag-Lloyd, CMA CGM Group and Evergreen – along with oil giants like BP have paused shipping through the Red Sea amid fears of Houthi attacks – moves that caused oil and gas prices to surge.

The attacks could force ships to take a far longer route around Africa and cause insurance costs to rocket. Companies could pass on the increased cost of moving their goods to consumers, raising prices again at a time when governments around the world have struggled to tame post-pandemic inflation.

The Houthi strikes could be intended to inflict economic pain on Israel's allies in the hope they will pressure it to cease its bombardment of the enclave.

Championing the Palestinian cause could also be an attempt to gain legitimacy at home and in the region as they seek to control northern Yemen. It could also give them an upper hand against their Arab adversaries, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, who they accuse of being lackeys of the US and Israel.

“A Not-So-Simple Story in Deapriffe”

Chapter One | Chapter Two | CHAPTER THREE

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chapter Three: A Not-So-Easy Evening

[4k Words]

Kalyani wished she could have been more horrified to find Ahmed with a black eye. She was horrified. Still, at the same time, she couldn’t argue she was shocked. She wished she couldn’t have expected that from Ari and Barry. She wished she couldn’t have expected that from the company. She wished she couldn’t have expected that from the whole of Deapriffe.

She also wished she couldn’t have expected to have to convince Ahmed to get an ice pack before he returned the assembly line. As much as they needed him, Ahmed coming back from Clarke’s office with a black eye would have done nothing but stoke fires. Kalyani herself had to prepare her best ‘deferential secretary’ voice for when she returned to her office. The fierce emails and calls had already arrived for Clarke. She had to hold herself up through a whole afternoon of “Yes, Sir”s and “Mr. Clarke said”s while the four-hundred she and Ahmed needed hammered deeper and deeper inside the back of her skull.

Kalyani met Ahmed on the factory bus to head back home. It was packed with their – rightfully – furious colleagues. They protested the payments amongst themselves and to everyone else listening. She knew they deserved to. She knew everyone was just as stressed. But the noise reached into her nerves and injected her whole body with anxiety until it felt like she had a dozen vipers crawling up her back, constricting around her throat and piercing every inch of her skin. She had to keep her earphones in for the whole trip. Ahmed sat next to her. He shot her an understanding furrow of his eyebrows and lift of his lips whenever she caught his eyes while he mediated what light conversation he could with the others.

All through the bus journey, all through the stroll past Lord Way, all through the lift up to their third-floor flat, the four-thousand followed in their shadows. It festered and buzzed in their ears, until they shut the flat door and it was all the silence had.

They slipped off their shoes as usual and Kalayni hovered, only a few steps into the main room. They’d squashed the living room and kitchen into one. A low sofa and television took up one corner while a half-square of countertops ending in an oven and a fridge took up the other. They usually ate on the sofa but they had two plastic wheelie chairs propped against the kitchen counter too, which Ahmed would use to wheel around on whenever he wasn’t relying on his foot. She stared at her bedroom door. “I’ll…I’ll grab my laptop. We’ll look at the budget. See what we’ll need to do to get four-hundred.”

“Cool…I’ll go grab another ice pack before this starts getting worse again,” said Ahmed, indicating the sore cloud over his eye.

While he headed for the fridge, Kalyani forced her feet forwards. Her stomach churned, the floor a tipping ship, and the sensation didn’t let her go even after she had her laptop and was sat on the sofa. She gripped the laptop’s edge. She took deep breath after deep breath until, finally, she could turn on the screen.

“Okay. So. Since our savings aren’t enough right now to get two-hundred for either of us, the first thing we can do is take the money from our food budget. We can cut down how much we buy in a week and buy cheaper versions for the next month or two. Cut down on going out with people too. Even if it won’t get us much, it’ll get us something. We can do the same for any toiletries or clothes or things we’ll need. We’ll be fine,” she said, quite aware of her creased forehead and the hands covering her mouth failing to convince even herself.

“We’ve got four days to make up the rest of the money,” Ahmed added. “I can easily do more shifts tomorrow and Friday. That’ll get us some more.” He rose from the fridge with a bag of frozen chips pressed to his face. He’d had to put his sock between his cheek and the chips to protect his skin from the cold.

Kalyani’s eyes were boring into the digital budget. As her heartrate continued to spike, her hands shook over her keyboard and she swallowed. “I’ll– I’ll ask around the neighbours. Hopefully, they’ll have some sewing they can pay me for before Monday. I’ll work on my breaks and in the evening so I can get us a bit more before we have to also have to think about paying the rent next week which will take most of what we’ve saved right now and…”

“Kalyani, Kalyani, deep breath.” Ahmed rested a hand on her arm and joined her on the sofa. He took a deep breath with her. Kalyani nodded to herself and pulled her knees up to her chest. Ahmed offered her a bright smile through his makeshift ice pack. “We’ll be okay. We can do this. We’ve just got one tough month to get through then everything will be back to normal. We can do this.”

She nodded along. When he put the ice pack down and opened his arms for a hug, she gladly fell into them. They held each other close for a few silent ticks of her watch, willing to hide from the world in their embrace.

“I love you,” she said, the white ring on her left hand clicking against the black ring on his right.

“I love you too,” Ahmed murmured. He leant his head against Kalyani’s soft hair. He didn’t speak again. She held him closer, realising he needed her warmth as much as she needed his.

“If we can’t earn enough money by Monday, we can sell things too,” he said, his voice lowering as the held cheer slipped away. “We’ve got some decorations but…” He sighed. “It’s probably the console that’ll get us enough. Maybe the screen too.”

Kalyani glimpsed at the television and game console stacked in the corner. Games they’d been collecting longer than they’d lived together piled high in a neat, rainbow-coloured tower by its side. Selling them would certainly get them Clarke’s money. Selling their weekends of laughing and shrieking as they declared victory over the other would certainly get them Clarke’s money.

Her heart weighed her to floor. She closed her eyes with a weak, sad laugh. “It’s funny. The reason I asked you for a job at Clarke’s Motors in the first place was so I wouldn’t have to worry about the Sharks…”

Ahmed furrowed his eyebrows down at her. “You want to move?”

After a few seconds silent, she shook her head. “It’s just as bad everywhere else in Deapriffe. There wouldn’t be any point.” Her lips tightened as her eyes darkened. “It’s not like we can do anything to change it either. Not at this rate. Everyone’s used to it, and no-one’s going to be the one to get shot for a message. The police have probably been in the Sharks’ pocket since we were born. Wouldn’t be surprised if the local government too…”

Kalyani was hardly conscious of what she was saying. The anxiety built to a balloon’s pressure in head and all it could do was pour out of her mouth. Still, as always, Ahmed listened, his shining eyes unmoving from her. Kalyani shifted. “I’m best at Clarke’s. You don’t have to worry about me leaving. I know you’d never anyway.”

“No,” Ahmed agreed. He replaced the frozen chips on his eye and stared up at the ceiling. His lips twitched, but the circumstances restrained his usual smile at his thoughts. “I still remember the first time Dad let me sneak into the assembly shop with him. He was holding my hand the whole time so I wouldn’t run off but he went through how all the cars were made with me, who everyone was, and how it all worked and it was incredible. I thought it was the coolest job in the world. In school, everyone was telling me to ‘aim higher’ but being able to do it now with my own hands, I love it. I love getting those car shells and transforming them into something you see on the roads, knowing how every car’s constructed, seeing all the parts and effort that went into every one of them.”

Kalyani enjoyed the fire rising in Ahmed’s expression. It was so bright yet inviting, like a campfire, as if he couldn’t wait for the other person to get as lit up as he was. When he looked back, he offered it to her.

“I know there are things wrong with the company. I know stuff like welfare and the pay could be better. But I love the work so much. I love who I work with. I don’t want to have to give up on that if I can do anything to help it.”

Kalyani sighed and closed her eyes. “Yeah. Exactly…” She shifted against him and for a few seconds, she didn’t stir. Her chest glowed with Ahmed’s comfort yet her anxiety kept pumping her heart and turning her stomach. So, in the dark of her mind, she rummaged furiously for a solution. She pulled the whole flat into view, pricing everything in every drawer until she could find something enough for Clarke on Monday. Anything other than their precious games. And she found it. The thought dulled every sensation in her body.

“Don’t worry. I’ll be back in a sec,” she said. She hugged him one last time before she left to her bedroom.

Ahmed waited. When she returned, she returned with a neat, varnished, square box. His face fell. “No.”

“I never wear it anyway. It might as well help us.”

She opened the box to reveal the beautiful necklace inside. The glittering, engraved gold was a celebration of craftmanship with its thick chain of interlocking segments and plaits and the heavy adornment in the middle that seemed carved with every flame in the sun. She’d inherited it from her grandmother. She’d never worn it, just like she never wore any jewellery, but she’d kept it for all years Ahmed had known her.

“It’s real gold. If we sell it, it’ll definitely be enough.”

Ahmed rose. He closed his hands around the necklace’s box. “Thank you. Thank you so much…I know just what we’re going to do.” He projected reassurance through every inch of his face for her. “We’re going to pawn it! They do that over at the horse races. We’ll pawn it, get the money for Clarke, then work for the rest of the month to get it back! I can do more shifts, you can do more sewing, and we can even sell some small things to help if we’re struggling by the end. We’ve got thirty days. We can do this!”

“Yeah,” Kalyani said, her voice wavering. “Yeah.”

“So we’ve got our plan! I can go to the racetracks on Sunday morning to pawn the necklace. That way we’ll have these four days and a whole month to save up to get your grandmother’s necklace back. We can do it.”

He hugged her again.

Enveloped in his arms, Kalyani murmured, “You can pawn it on Saturday afternoon instead. In case something goes wrong and we need Sunday to try something else.”

“Alright.” He broke apart so he could see her try a smile. “You okay?”

“Yeah. I love you. Thank you.”

“I love you too.” Ahmed cocked his head towards the kitchen. “Alright. Now, do you want to do the cooking together tonight or do you have some work to finish?”

“Don’t worry. Don’t worry. I can do the cooking too. I’ve got that one jumper to finish but I can do it tonight.”

“Or, how about you sit on the sofa and do that while I cook? That way we can still chat.” He poked her in the chest, pretending to be stern. “Remember? You’re going to sleep at a decent time tonight so you can have breakfast with me in the morning.”

She chuckled. “Fine.” She clutched her grandmother’s necklace box to her heart. She drummed her fingers against the old wood as her chest swirled with equal stress and relief, each cutting the other down whenever they rose. Four-hundred was still so much money to get, but they had her grandmother’s necklace to pawn, but…

Kalyani’s quiet exhale deflated her. She rested against Ahmed one more time and he held her in kind.

“Elise’s family has been really struggling since her husband’s accident,” she said.

He sighed. “Yeah.”

“And Łukasz is only nineteen.”

“Yeah…”

On the other side of Deapriffe, Thresher was just as miserable. For the evening, she’d found herself in the Mary Rose: its status as one of the city’s finest dining establishments evident by the mass of chandeliers, silverware, columns, and arched windows. It had the architecture of a cathedral, but one refurbished in the ‘modern’ image of square polished and glass surfaces, and the night’s guests had filled its every corner with a raucous chatter. The restaurant was a luxury most of Deapriffe’s population would never see. Still, Thresher could hardly appreciate it with loud Sharks and trembling waiters all around her.

Outside the wall of windows they had gazing out onto the city, the nearest billboard was dead. The road was in lockdown and the Mary Rose should have been as well. Except, when a procession of the Shark’s white cars pulled up outside your doors, you weren’t allowed to stay shut. A sea of black and white suits filled every gleaming table across the restaurant floor. Laughter and catch-ups washed the air, covering the few meetings beneath it. Discussions that would go on to dictate lives melted into inanity for passing ears.

Thresher sat on a central table alongside her mother and twin. She couldn’t even wear her frustration on her face. Eyes from every corner flicked to the Shark boss and her children before hurriedly moving on. Even the waiters, who looked upon the mass of Sharks with indiscriminate terror, noticed how the attention warped around the three of them. They skirted away accordingly, until a lift of a hand had one darting over to take care of anything any of them wanted.

Sandra Vaughan reclined in her seat with a wine glass in hand. She ran through the other major Sharks for her children, supplying anecdotes for how she’d dealt with each of them. Thresher played the part of an interested listener. She kept her attention on her mum, she smiled, and she recognised enough of the names to add comments of her own, each of which Vaughan worked off with a proud glint in her smile. Every one wore Thresher down further. Her moments of success hit her harder than the failures: the moments where she realised she could dress up as the perfect, cisgender, Shark son her mum wanted forever, and she did not know how to deal with that prospect.

Finley, on the other hand, made no show of anything. He didn’t bother to hide his boredom at the sound of politics. He tilted back in his chair and texted his friends across the restaurant, enjoying the sight of the waitresses. Many of the women had caught Thresher’s eye as well, the restaurant’s black uniform blouse and pencil skirt a gorgeous shape on all of them. However, she stuck her attention to their table and continued draining her glass. The attention of a musclebound Shark never came as welcome to civilian women like them.

“Clarke made a decent point about Letizia Fulgoni,” Vaughan was saying. “She’s been raking in the profits recently. Shake that down and you’ll have yourself a nice bit of extra income.”

Thresher raised an eyebrow. “‘Shake that down’?” She chuckled. “Don’t worry. We won’t even have to bother. Fulgoni’s got no history of trouble. She’s got the new location but without any real safety nets, she’s not going to risk disobeying us. There’s no need to waste the manpower threatening her.”

The lines across Vaughan’s face flattened. “Watch yourself. It’s a pit trap too many Sharks fall into. Going easy on the businesses because things are ‘comfortable’ is the surest-fire way to losing everything to whichever upstart’s nearby. The biggest mess I’ve ever had to deal with was in Wobbegong’s–”

Finley snorted loudly. “God, these names are stupid!”

“He’s a stupid man,” said Vaughan. “Wobbegong earnt his name. The only reason I didn’t kill him was because I wasn’t in the mood to deal with his brother’s inevitable revenge and lose me my best bookkeeper. Wobbegong, the pathetic bastard, had all his businesses ‘banding together and refusing to pay’. Bryson had to take over and double down on the whole road to get things back in line.”

Vaughan caught Finley’s exaggerated slump in his chair to her side.

“I understand. I understand. When I was your age, I didn’t want to have to care about all these names and faces either. People learnt their lessons through fear and all I had to consider were the drinks and the men I wanted that night.”

Finley burst into laughter. “Is that why you left Dad at home tonight?”

“Shush,” Vaughan chided – smirking. “Tonight’s for the family business family. You’re controlling your own territory now. Knowing the names and faces pays off in the long run. You’ve got to know what it takes to piss people off, what they’ll do when you have, and where you hit to hurt them the most. Sometimes, it takes a burnt-down house. Sometimes, it’s a simple punch to the gut.”

“Do we have to worry about Clarke at all?” Thresher asked.

“Please. Clarke would rather cut off his other ear than be an issue for us. He’ll stay in line. Meanwhile, you’ll get some extra cash out of it.”

Finley spun his knife between his fingers. “Shame. He looked hilarious this morning. Let’s increase the pay next month. I’d love it if he didn’t get the money.”

“So, if we don’t ruin our most useful asset,” Thresher continued, with a pointed turn away from Finley, “you’re saying we can rely on Clarke. We’ll use his decades of collaboration to our advantage. Let Fulgoni know any disobedience from her will just profit Clarke and there’ll be no risk of them banding together. This way, we get all the benefits without bothering about the extra Sharks and potentially agitating the Deapriffe police chief living in our territory.”

Vaughan’s lips twisted behind her wine glass. She set it down and flicked her hand for a new round. “James Dunn is firmly in our pocket. I make sure of that. He hasn’t done anything against the Sharks in all of Deapriffe. He’s not going to start because it’s affecting a business down the road. The only thing you’re risking by acting is a few civilians’ bones. That’s nothing in the grand scheme of things.” Her gaze settled on Thresher’s face. Thresher turned to avoid it but Vaughan ordered her back. “You know what I’ve been hearing.”

“I know.”

“Thresher…” Vaughan groaned through her teeth, caught between her care and frustration. “Listen. When you look weak, it makes me look weak.”

“I know.”

“You’ve got to start showing your backbone. You already have everything you need. If something broke out here right now, I’d trust the two of you to come out on top. All you have to do is make it so no-one’s got any doubt of that in the mind. Keep your efforts on that, then everything else they could say becomes irrelevant.”

Thresher caught Vaughan’s significant look. She raised her eyebrow. “Wondering if I’m gay again?”

Finley sniggered. Vaughan didn’t say anything.

Thresher rolled her eyes, not that it could stop the constriction of her heart. “No need to ‘worry’, Mum. Trust me. I am not interested in men.”

A stiff waitress arrived with their drinks. Vaughan took hers with an understanding gesture towards Thresher. “Take some direction from Finley. This job is all about experience. Keep getting fights under your belt and it’ll become second nature.”

“Yeah. Sure. That must be– Oh, I didn’t order a rosé.” Thresher passed her glass back to the waitress. “This must be for another table. I’ll have whatever white you’ve got.”

“Oh.” The waitress – a beautiful woman with red snuck into her uniforms in her locs and her heels – stopped. Gingerly, she collected the glass and Thresher’s face fell at the look of cold disgust piercing through her made-up eyes. Then, she cursed herself for not having expected it. The waitress attempted a civil, service worker nod before leaving to get Thresher’s drink. Vaughan’s hand snapped around her wrist. The waitress yelped.

“What do you call this service?” Vaughan demanded.

Thresher’s heart punched against her ribs. She rushed to take the rosé back. “Mum, I don’t care about this.”

Vaughan refused to loosen her hold on the waitress’s wrist. “Tell me your name.”

“…Sofia.”

“Full name.”

Sofia tested Vaughan’s grip before realising she was trapped. “Sofia Gálvez Moreno, Ma’am. I’m so sorry for the inconvenience. I’ll get him his white right now.”

Vaughan hauled Sofia’s arm forwards and Sofia crashed against the table in front of Thresher. “We’re in no rush here,” Vaughan said, as if delivering Thresher a present. “You’ve got the time to teach Sofia some respect before she goes get you the right drink.”

Sofia’s eyes snapped up, wide. “No! Please, Sir, it was an honest mistake!”

Thresher put on a scowl for her mum and brother. She leant back in her seat, as if she couldn’t care less, and growled. “Get me my order.” She raised the rosé. “I’m keeping this. Come back with my white, on the house, then stay out of my sight for the rest of the evening.”

Sofia nodded like a child’s toy pulled too many times. “Yes, Sir! Right away, Sir!”

Once again, when she attempted to leave, Vaughan refused her. Finley leant over the table towards Thresher. “Here’s some of that ‘direction’ for you. You’re not teaching nursery.” He slapped her bicep. “All that time at the gym isn’t for show. People remember a broken arm way more than any of your wittle mean words.”

“No! Please!” Sofia cried. She met Thresher’s eyes, pleadingly. “Please, you have to understand. I’m just tired! I’ve been on my feet since seven this morning and I haven’t been sleeping well for weeks now. I’ve been busy looking after my sister’s baby! My sister’s got a heart disease and she’s in hospital while her son is very young. He’s only a few months old. My sister doesn’t have any other family in Deapriffe so I’m the only one who can watch him nights and look after her and–”

The words stabbed dagger after dagger into Thresher’s heart, horror painting her face uncontainably. Meanwhile, Vaughan and Finley sank deeper into their exasperation and incredulity as they heard the next rambled sob story on a list the length of a motorway. Vaughan put her face in her hand and groaned. “Enough!” She tightened her fist. Sofia cried out in pain.

“Mum–!” Thresher started.

Vaughan uncovered her tired expression. “Just shut her up!”

“Please! Don’t hurt me!” Sofia begged.

As Thresher looked around helplessly, Finley banged his hand down on the table. “For God’s sake, Thresher. Look! It’s easy!”

Thresher’s eyes shot wide. “Finley!”

“No!” Sofia recoiled.

Finley rose.

“DON’T TOUCH HER!” Thresher roared. She wrenched Sofia out of her mum’s hand. Sofia stumbled onto her heels past Thresher and the talk in the restaurant blew out like a bulb. Thresher faced Sofia, thrusting her hand at the exit. “Get out of here! No-one is going to follow you or they’ll have me to deal with.”

Sofia needed no convincing. With a final glance to Vaughan and Finley, she fled as fast as she was able to in her heels. Thresher watched her until the fire exit door had clattered shut. Her blood pounded like gongs in her ears. Her breathing rusher in and out of her chest. Neither succeeded in disguising how quiet the Mary Rose had become.

As instantly as they had stopped, the surrounding Sharks made a point of continuing their conversations and keeping their eyes on their own tables. Vaughan and Finley, however, had nothing to distract from their rage. Finley held his fists so tight his knuckles were white. His teeth seemed ready to crack against each other. The severe lines on Vaughan’s face cut through her skin as if freshly torn.

Finley tore his eyes off Thresher, facing his mum. “I don’t need him. I can do this by myself–”

“No! We do this as a family,” Vaughan snarled. Thoughts burnt behind her eyes. She pulled her voice down into something low and even. “Finley, when I tell you, take your brother out into town. I want him back with a kill. We’re going to get through his block.” She slammed her fist against the table and levelled her finger at Thresher. “And you are going to man up!”

Thresher’s eyes fell. She didn’t move.

Case in point- I just watched the newest episode. When she refuses to help, I know a lot of people have said it's because she's cold and a bitch blah blah. To me, as a Brit, she seems scared. She knows these men are going to be skirting close to breaking federal laws and if they get arrested, she loses them. Walking away is the only way she can show that fear. Honestly, I'd do the same, but before I left, I would probably have insulted Magnum after he said about having no friends growing up

See, that’s what strikes me as her being incredibly hypocritical, because in the season 1 finale, they broke...oh, I don’t know, like 18 international laws, and she didn’t bat an eye. They smuggled a wanted war criminal out of the US to go negotiate with a terrorist group over a prisoner exchange with stolen money. And she was the first to tell Magnum that she would back helping Hannah (despite Hannah actually being a criminal wanted on several continents versus Ahmed, who was a refugee and still a legal child). When she wanted Magnum’s help with the Viper episode (I’ve only watched it twice so names are out the window), he didn’t bat an eye...and they broke another couple dozen international laws, and then she tried to murder someone at the end (which, actually, I would totally be onboard with because I am a vengeful person). If she was in Britain, I could understand more of her concern because I don’t honestly know what the penalties for illegal immigration are, but here it’s like 2 years (max) in jail for the person coming in and penalty fines, so it actually carries a lesser sentence than any of the other crimes she has helped commit with Magnum and Company. The problem for me is that she seems perfectly okay with flaunting the law when it’s in her interest, not when it concerns others.

okay i got distracted but for a last one, is there anyone you've been considering yoloing recently?

definitely!! apollo justice!! i just… love aa so much rn and am falling so far down into lawyer hell i don’t think i’ll ever not love it now tbh… he’s such a Good and tries so hard to do his job well and right and i am really looking forward to more of his backstory being revealed tbh

i think once i’ve learned more about his past and about him in general, he’ll definitely be a character i’d love to yolo on denny at some point in the future!

also spyro!! i’m still working out whereabouts i want to try him from in spyro 3 but he’ll def be someone i’ll be yoloing soon….

i think for wof, outside of flame, i’d been vaguely considering viper instead?? and also blister…. she’s a really cool character tbh? like… she’s so manipulative and crafty but also has her slip-ups too and just, i dunno i’m drawn quite a lot to her as a character as she has so much potential for stuff?

also mew…. i’ve been considering yoloing her a lot lately. my opinions on her concept and personality have changed a fair bit since ahm so it’d be nice to test out what she’d be like now! (also the idea of potential wild or tamed pokemon that she creates is still a great idea that i wouldn’t mind putting into practice on denny if anyone’d be up for having a character or two end up with one thanks to mew’s meddling)

#i couldn't help but get to this one quick tbh....#i have vague ideas of what i'd like to do with these charas too which is Great if i go through with yoloing some of em #thanks friend!!#larkspear #stop Denny time!

There were times he found himself thinking back to little Ahura and her pet viper, Ahmes. Her skills with the Pungi had been growing as of recent, holding a melody for longer intervals to lull that serpent into a form of tameness. She often sought him out to talk with him about the day’s events, and the happenings of yesterday where it concerned their home and the people living there.

--------------------

⥊ “ Let us offer our gratitude to Sekmet for protection from the wicked. ” He’d say when she came bearing news of another murder, holding a sort of reverence for the deities that were supposedly watching over them all. Never would she know whom had done the deed of murder, the grievous lacerations of claws carving flesh or the mysterious drownings where there was hardly a drop of water to be found nearby would never have their explanations easily discovered. It was not the idea of Justice that fueled behind his motives than it was being the Bigger Wolf to claim his territory and do as he pleases with no true consequence. People would crowd, gossiping to their midst over the disturbing aftermath of Geb’s animosity, often times it brought a subtle smirk to sun weathered lips.

In time, it would only be accepted as another part of life out in the small oasis he called home. The wicked would be punished, the innocent would live in relative peace so long as they do not incur the wrath of the Gods.

Oh Sweet little Ahura.. worried about what does it mean to be wicked. In time, perhaps he will offer ‘certain’ advice to that, if only to put some of her worries to ease. After all, a Stand User’s world will always be different to those born outside of it’s invisible walls.

--------------------

⥊ “ Don’t worry, Ahura. I won’t be gone long. ” Where does he go? It’s often asked when the quick taps of nimble feet would catch up to him as he is readying to make the long journey to Cairo. It’s nothing that includes his little companion, she was far better suited to trailing behind him as he goes about his errands in watering the orchards of apricots. Nothing wrong with stealing a few of the ripe ones, sharing between himself and this curious child who wasn’t even his to begin with.

⥊ “ As long as I have my cane, I will find my way back as always. Heh heh hehe, who else keeps a blind man company? ”

#|| Tag: Gazing over the Ocean of Sand { N'Doul }#|| Tag: Drabble #( I blame nami. )#( we haven't done much of anything but I still get fucking feels with that picture of Ahura finding N'doul's cane in the desert. ;w; )#( petition for nami to stop mchurting me with her babies. g o D. dont even get me started on julya and n'doul adventures. )#( her being miserable in the desert while n'doul is not affecting but put they fucking switch in Sweden. )#( his turn to be miserable in the cold while julya is living her life jumping in the snow piles. )

"I’m out, Jovan,” Dusty stated firmly.

“No, you’re not,” the other said, with equal surety.

“You and Viper lied to me, you said the place was empty.”

“We said practically and it was...practically,” Jo smirked slightly.

“We destroyed families, orphaned children!” It made him sick, the thought he had any part of it made him sick.

Jo grew serious. “They destroyed families. They orphaned children...children like you. Like your brother. Tell me, old friend, did it get any better in America? Did your new, non-mutant, parents make you feel welcomed? Loved? Normal? Was the father of Ash’s first girlfriend understanding when he changed form in front of him or did he call Ash a little freak and threaten to kill him?”

“So turn about is fair play?”

"We are not hunting them down, slaughtering them in the middle of the night, we merely destroy what’s built to destroy us.” Jo’s lips went up faintly. “There are always causalities in war, at least we’re making attempts to minimize them.”

“Does Van feel the same way?”

Jo only smiled at the mention of his other half.

“This isn’t what I signed up for.”

“On the contrary, Dust, it’s exactly what you signed up for.”

Mostly I just wanted to set up where Dusty is after the time jump...which is out of Kamar-Taj and part of a terrorist group that’s sorta a splinter cell of Magneto’s Brotherhood of Mutants. I think he joined it as a mostly peaceful group, but it’s grown out of hand so now he’s having serious second thoughts. Jovan (faceclaim: Riz Ahmed) is a childhood friend of Ash and Dusty and actually two separate mutants - not unlike Cary/Kerry in FX’s Legion - Jo and Van, with their own powers who appear as twins when apart: Jo (the dominant) is darker and more aggressive, Van is mostly a pacifist...they’ll become clearer entities as time goes on. Viper you’ll meet later and, no, that’s not his real name, lol!

Juuko: el defensor de Uganda rechaza el regreso de Wydad Casablanca hasta que se paguen las cuotas

Los campeones de la Liga Premier de Uganda, Vipers SC, están interesados en adquirir los servicios del defensor de los Cranes de Uganda, Murushid Juuko, de 26 años, ha revelado que no volverá al lado marroquí de Botola Pro Wydad Casablanca hasta que se liquiden sus cuotas. El jugador de 26 años fue un jugador confiable en el campeón de la Liga Continental de Tanzania, Simba SC, durante cinco años haciendo 149 apariciones, anotando siete goles en el proceso. Sin embargo, se fue a mediados de 2019 para el lado norteafricano, pero las cosas no salieron según lo planeado. Después de discutir con el club sobre cuestiones que incluyen finanzas, el defensor imponente está en el radar de Vipers SC, pero se negó a comentar sobre el tema, afirmando que todavía está contratado con Wydad Casablanca, pero que solo se reunirá con ellos si se despejan sus deudas. "No puedo comentar sobre el movimiento de las víboras ahora", dijo el internacional de Uganda Juuko al Daily Monitor. "Todavía tengo mi contrato con Casablanca, pero solo puedo regresar a Marruecos cuando me paguen todo el dinero que me deben. Si ese no es el caso, aún me quedaré en Uganda". El entrenador de Venenos Fred Kajoba no ocultó su admiración por el experimentado central. El táctico está formando un equipo para ayudarlos a desempeñarse bien en la Liga de Campeones de Caf en la temporada 2020/21. "Ningún entrenador en Uganda querría tener a Murushid en su equipo. Incluso si le preguntaras a Mike Mutebi (gerente de KCCA), él correría por él", dijo Kajoba. Las víboras fueron coronadas después de que la Federación de Asociaciones de Fútbol de Uganda (Fufa) cancelara la liga en medio de Covid-19. Se habían jugado 25 rondas y el equipo con base en Kitende lideraba con 54 puntos, cuatro más que los campeones KCCA 2018/19. "Vamos por el fútbol continental y, en cualquier caso, nos enfrentamos a un lado grande, por ejemplo, desde el norte de África, podemos confiar en Juuko para obtener experiencia y mando", agregó Kajoba. "Es posible que tengamos muchos defensores en este momento (Geoffrey Wasswa, Bashir Asiku, Halid Lwaliwa, Ahmed Amayo, Ibrahim Tembo, Jacob Okao, Livingstone Mulondo y Rashid Toha), pero si conseguimos a Juuko, algunos tendrán que prestarlos". Juuko formó parte del equipo de Johnathan McKinstry que derrotó a Malawi por 2-0 en el partido clasificatorio para la Copa Africana de Naciones 2021 que se jugó en Namboole. Según el subdirector del equipo de los Cranes, Paul Mukatabala, Wydad Casablanca preguntó por el jugador. El artículo continúa abajo "Dos semanas después del juego Cranes versus Malawi el 17 de noviembre, Wydad Casablanca le preguntó a Fufa sobre el paradero de Murushid Juuko", reveló al Daily Monitor. "El CEO (Edgar Watson) me encargó que lo buscara y cuando lo desarraigé de Entebbe, dijo que no volverá hasta que se resuelvan los problemas financieros. "Hace dos meses, nos dijo que su agente está manejando el asunto y le dimos suficiente tiempo para resolverlo".

Just Win battles to show off your mastery with limitless combinations of action-packed Victory Stances, insulting Victory Taunts, and champion worthy War Banners in the game.

Download MORTAL KOMBAT Update Version

This mobile version game has high-quality visuals. So that’s why performance is not optimized on devices with less than 1.0 GB RAM. This is the only online game. But you can play offline in this updated version. Here are some user reviews:

Magde Angelovska: Brilliant game. I’ve been reading the other reviews and I have to say Faction wars it’s not that easy for me (sometimes, let’s say 1 in 3 matches is very hard). The game freezes a bit right after a match is over but only for 3-5 seconds. It’s a bit harder to get souls now. I liked the store better before, but it doesn’t bother me now that is 3 random characters that change after 12 hours. I’m gonna say again that this is a brilliant game, and I don’t think I will ever get bored with it.

Ned Noodle: Excellent gameplay, addictive formula for fun. Not as gory as saying console X and 11. But relies heavily on microtransactions. These are understandable for a game of this size and complexity with the development costs. But the currency in the game costs so much real-world money. Would be better if the prices of microtransactions were tuned down. Still a good play, download it.

hyper viper vapes: best game I have played in a long time, not exactly like a console kombat game but who cares. it has amazing characters and great bonuses. and even chances to avoid spending souls to get badass characters through challenges. with just a bit of time, you can go from bronze to gold and higher tier characters. it is definitely a must play for any age🤘. well done wb and nether realm

xXShadowPhoenix79Xx: This game is really fun!!!! I have been playing since update 1.0 and I always have fun. One thing tho. I would give this 5 stars but I miss the old store for this game. Pls, add that back. or at least bring back the character part back.

nathan wallace: Great game, easy to play, easy to understand. The only bad thing about it is the way to acquire characters where you have to spend premium currency to get gold characters which are easy enough to get even without paying, but you have such a low chance of getting that same character again to keep ranking it up. It would be better if they had it so if you already had the character and you want to rank it up all you would have to do is go to the character card and purchase another with soul coins.

Jaydon Koh: I feel like this game is amazing! I never actually tried it before until 2 days ago and now I’m addicted! I hope that you all will bring the elite and elite pro packs back to the game as I really want to get classic Liu kang as well as other diamond cards.

phoenix basone: I absolutely love this game, the graphics are good and the gameplay is amazing. But with that being said I would love to give this 5 stars but the packs are garbage, the souls are way to much of a hassle to even try to get, and it kind of just feels like they are just trying to bribe money out of their players with this so my only problem really makes it easier to get souls please. Thank you and other than that it’s a great game.

Rossemery Ramirez: I love this game so much I play it every day it’s so addicted. But what I hate is that you cant friend people like if you want to play with your friend in a 1v1. But you can’t friend people because there are no add friends. I saw that the greater of this game put add friends button but take it away. My question is why did you take it away? and can you please put that back again when you release an update again, please.😔

Creative Animators: I especially loved this game. It is similar to shadow fight. I love this game because of fatalities & brutalities. It makes me stronger to fight in my life. Thanks very much, Mortal Kombat.

Amadeus Musique: Extremely fun strategic game the graphics are good and everything is almost perfect, with events and encouraging players to keep playing, but I’d recommend making the X rays look better.

Ahmed MT: it’s really a very very good game, for me it’s addictive, I love playing it all the time and I am unlocking so many characters am very satisfied. and most importantly it’s not a pay to win so it’s the best game in this category thank you, developers.

spider boy: I love this game but lost my account just because I didn’t sign into the web account. Now I have to start all over again. Is there a way to recover an account from google play, or do I have to do everything again now?

SteAm Scopez: Yes, I love this game it is super fun and all but I have completed some of the other ways to earn gems like 7 for beating a tutorial but I add that I should have about 181 souls added from all of the achievements. I would love it if I could have these souls that I have earned. This is why I give this game a 3-Star review.

Combo Breaker 2018: The Full Results

Combo Breaker 2018 has concluded. Chicago's biggest fighting game tournament has wrapped up for another year and all of the champions have been crowned. Shacknews has covered a couple of the winners already, but for those who missed the weekend tournaments, here's a helpful recap. We'll also make sure to add some of our own thoughts here and there.

GO1 vs. SonicFox (Photo Credit: @TischPhotos)

Dragon Ball FighterZ

Shacknews has a full recap of the Dragon Ball FighterZ Grand Finals up and running right now. SonicFox went into this event having never beaten consensus best player in the world GO1, but Combo Breaker went just a little bit differently.

1st - SonicFox (Dominique McLean) 2nd - GO1 (Goichi Kishida) 3rd - Dogura (Ryo Nozaki) 4th - NyChrisG (Christopher Gonzalez) 5th (tie) - Kazunoko (Ryota Inoue) 5th (tie) - HookGangGod (Eduardo Hook) 7th (tie) - Fenritti 7th (tie) - Doza (Glyn Mendoza)

Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition

Shacknews has a full recap of the Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition Grand Finals available now. NL and Xian break through to shake up the Capcom Pro Tour leaderboards.

1st - NL (Sim Gun) 2nd - Xian (Kun Xian Ho) 3rd - Infiltration (Seonwoo Lee) 4th - Nemo (Naoki Nemoto) 5th (tie) - Verloren (Hyungsuk Kong) 5th (tie) - Bonchan (Masato Takahashi) 7th (tie) - Dogura (Ryo Nozaki) 7th (tie) - Oil King (Li-Wei Lin)

Tekken 7

Shacknews has a full recap of the Tekken 7 Grand Finals available now. Knee's victory puts him atop the Tekken World Tour standings.

1st - Knee (Jae Min Bae) 2nd - JeonDDing (Sang-hyun Jeon) 3rd - LowHigh (Sun Woong Youn) 4th - SAINT (Choi Jinwoo) 5th (tie) - GoAttack (Jihwan Kim) 5th (tie) - CHANEL (Seong ho Kang) 7th (tie) - Trungy (Trung Mai) 7th (tie) - Anakin (Hoa Luu)

Injustice 2

The Injustice 2 Grand Finals went down to the wire between Tweedy and DR_Gross. Gross brought the heat with Green Lantern throughout the finals, but Tweedy was eventually able to ward off one last GL onslaught, thanks to Starfire's effective zoning techniques. GL wasn't able to close in and Tweedy took the tournament.

twitch_clip

1st - Tweedy (Tommy Tweedy) 2nd - DR_Gross (Daris Daniel) 3rd - SonicFox (Dominique McLean) 4th - GunShow (Jon Snow) 5th (tie) - Biohazard (Matthew Commandeur) 5th (tie) - SylverRye (Ryan Amaechi) 7th (tie) - Rewind (Curtis McCall) 7th (tie) - Scar (Brad Vaughn)

Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- 2

This was another wild Top 8 that culminated with a barnburner of a Grand Finals. Korea's Jaewon "Daru I-No" Kim just needed the opportunity to prove himself, but has had trouble getting to tournaments in the past. He even relied on a community fundraiser to get him to this very event. But he made his opportunity count, as he narrowly edged out Fukuda "Teresa" Norihiro in a Grand Finals that left both men emotionally spent by the end.

twitch_clip

1st - Daru I-No (Jaewon Kim) 2nd - Teresa (Fukuda Norihiro) 3rd - Hamad (Hamad Akbar) 4th - Kazunoko (Ryota Inoue) 5th (tie) - PepperySplash (Justin Campbell) 5th (tie) - BjornSonOfBear (Alain Kim) 7th (tie) - Blaze (Manny Blaze) 7th (tie) - Kid Viper (Jason Srouji)

Killer Instinct

One of the most exciting tournaments of the weekend that went largely under the radar was Killer Instinct. Combo Breaker has always been one of the best places to catch the top Killer Instinct and this was no exception. While he fell short last year, there was no stopping Latrell "Amenty" Thomas in 2018. He has a total mastery of new character Eagle and former Evo champion Darnell "Hollywood Sleep" Waller had no answers. This was a master class in how to work opponents with KI's last character.

twitch_clip

1st - Amenty (Latrell Thomas) 2nd - Hollywood Sleep (Darnell Waller) 3rd - Bass (Kenneth Armas) 4th - Thompxson (Deion Thompson) 5th (tie) - SonicDolphin117 (Andrew Honigman) 5th (tie) - Storm179 (Calvin Phelps) 7th (tie) - DevilMayCare (Michael Figueroa) 7th (tie) - Nicky (Nicky Iovene)

Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite

It's hard to argue against the idea that Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite has lost pretty much all of its steam since its damning Evo snub. While registration numbers have remained consistent, many of the game's high-profile players have left, viewership has dipped, and Capcom looks to have abandoned the Marvel fanbase... again. But the Marvel tournaments are still incredible to watch, as evidenced by Combo Breaker's Top 8.

Watch as Kevin "Dual Kevin" Barrios caps off an incredible Losers Bracket run in the most epic fashion possible. Don't put Hawkeye in a box, because all he needs is his bow and arrow.

twitch_clip

1st - Dual Kevin (Kevin Barrios) 2nd - DekillSage (Jon Coello) 3rd - Banehollow3789 (James Marroquin) 4th - NyChrisG (Christopher Gonzalez) 5th (tie) - Abbock (Brian Murphy) 5th (tie) - Lariat GOD (Tyler Hinson) 7th (tie) - Emorawr79 (Jose Ramirez) 7th (tie) - Noelbhungry (Noel Brown)

Super Smash Bros. Melee

The best players across both Super Smash Bros. Melee and Smash 4 were attending MomoCon this weekend, so there was a lot of A-tier talent missing from Combo Breaker. Still, the tournaments were exciting and it was an opportunity for some new faces to shine, like Melee winner Kalindi "KJH" Henderson.
