ICEJ NEWS REPORTS: 
Reports out of Yemen indicate that Special Forces troops from Saudi Arabia and the UAE have led a successful ground operation to push the Iran-back Houthi rebel group out of the southern port city of Yemen. A spokesman for the Saudi-led coalition confirmed that it was supplying various types of assistance to the military forces loyal to Yemen’s internationally backed government, but declined to talk about the deployment of Saudi troops to Yemen. In related news, a source in the Pentagon told Reuters on Thursday that Israel has transferred several US-built Cobra ground attack helicopters to Jordan for the purpose of guarding the Hashemite Kingdom’s borders against incursion by the Islamic State (IS) and/or Al-Qaida terror militias. The aircraft, which Israel had retired from its own fleets, were given extensive refurbishment and upgrade packages before being transferred to the Jordanian military.
