Saleh died after days of intense street fighting between his forces and Houthi rebels, a senior aide to Saleh told CNN. CNN has also seen footage and video that appeared to show Saleh's dead body. The images could not be independently verified. Sanaa's Houthi-controlled Interior Ministry announced Saleh's death in a statement. "The militias of treason are finished and their leader has been killed," the statement said. His death comes two days after Saleh announced he was parting ways with his former Houthi allies, and that he wanted to "turn the page" on relations with the Saudi-led coalition that launched a military intervention in Yemen in 2015. The coalition welcomed the move and granted Saleh's forces air support in fierce battles that later transpired.

Average Ameriacn Member	Mon Dec 04 10:31:41 Why wasn't he armed? Are guns forbidden in Yemen?
Forwyn Member	Mon Dec 04 11:17:36 Good. Now fuck off, Sauds.
Paramount Member	Mon Dec 04 12:44:15 Was he one of Saudi's men?
yankeessuck123 Member	Mon Dec 04 12:49:11 He was one of the major causes of the civil war in Yemen. So, fuck him.
Forwyn Member	Mon Dec 04 12:59:08 He should have given up after the first assassination attempt. Retire to a quiet life of rich exile. Instead, he directly caused the deaths and suffering of millions.
Paramount Member	Mon Dec 04 13:12:12 Good he's dead then.
Hot Rod Revved Up	Mon Dec 04 13:15:56 Wasn't he attacked by the rebels first?

Forwyn Member	Mon Dec 04 13:38:47 He backed the Houthis and then backstabbed them and wanted to work with the Saudis. Dead less than a week later. rekt
Aeros Member	Mon Dec 04 13:47:02 So he was the Freys.
Forwyn Member	Mon Dec 04 13:48:42 Hadi is Lannister, Houthi is Robb Stark, Saleh was definitely Frey Hadi called in the Golden Company but they haven't had much headway against the Young Wolf.
