1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:10,120 Scenes of this film had been filmed by a group of the bravest Mujahedeen in the great saga inside ADDURAIHIMIE city while besieged. 2 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:18,840 Some of them were martyred and others are still alive, these scenes are shown for the first time in this documentary series. 3 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:28,200 DOCUMENTARY PRODUCTION UNIT PRESENTS 4 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:45,880 ADDURAIHIMIE Siege & Victory Part 2 5 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:56,200 The surveillance operations of the Mujahedeen made the enemy unable to make advance toward the city 6 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:05,520 and what's left of their armored vehicles is a proof of the enemy's failure and defeat, therefore they changed their strategies 7 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:11,840 keeping in mind that ADDURAIHIMIE city is invincible as long as the believers (Mujahedeen) inside 8 00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:18,240 and entering the city will require the most devious schemes and the best of their capabilities 9 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:23,080 So, they made use of time as their main factor in their new plan 10 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:30,160 betting on the depletion of Mujahideen's food, ammunition and patience. 11 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:35,960 Thus, the most difficult stage began, with the enemy's full siege on the city. 12 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:42,440 They wanted to put the city under immense (heavy) pressure however, that made them expend more than 7 brigades 13 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:47,240 just to keep the people of the city under siege, and if there wasn't fortitude in the city 14 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,360 they would have used one brigade to secure the exposed sides 15 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,920 and took the rest of the forces and used them in other operations 16 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,600 their main goal just the people inside the city. 17 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,680 4 Sep. 2018 4 days under siege 18 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,320 (ADDURAIHIMIE city was besieged from all directions 19 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:15,320 and (the Giants) forces pushed many reinforcements to take full control of ADDURAIHIMIE district) 20 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:22,320 Then they began intensive shelling, and continuous bombing on the city 21 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:28,320 using artillery and Battleships, targeting all life-supporting facilities that existed in the city 22 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,160 to increase the suffering of the civilians and the Mujahedeen who were there. 23 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:37,360 (This is a market in the besieged city of ADDURAIHIMIE) 24 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:42,720 They were bombing the city from 8:00 PM at night until 2:00 AM in the middle of the night 25 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:48,760 six hours of continuous sweeping over the city of ADDURAIHIMIE with all types of weapons. 26 00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:02,280 They fired by various types of mortars: Commandos, 82, 81, and 120, basically by all kinds of mortars 27 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:08,880 they even used the heavy artillery 122 and tanks, they pounded the city real hard. 28 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,600 They used the scorched earth policy. 29 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:31,880 The surveillance drones were present, any movement will be targeted, whether civilians or Mujahedeen 30 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:39,800 So, it was very difficult if there was anyone injured, he would stay in his place in pain 31 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:45,440 sometimes, they would suffer for 4-5 hours before anyone can get them. 32 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:51,320 One of the repercussions of the siege when they cut off fuel from the city 33 00:03:51,440 --> 00:04:02,720 people and paramedic, did not find a way to transport the wounded people 34 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:10,040 only on foot or by carts that were pushed by hand or what was available. 35 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,680 Right after attacking and bombing the city from all the directions 36 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:23,080 all the medical crew of the city left, and even those who were living inside it, all have evacuated 37 00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:28,400 It was difficult for us as paramedics, military paramedics of front lines only 38 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:36,440 we did not have enough experience to do serious surgical operations or such thing. 39 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:45,120 Most injuries of the Mujahedeen inside the city were severe injuries. 40 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:51,040 The wounded inside the city, had no health care, or first aid 41 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,680 their wounds were festering badly, it was tragic situation for the wounded. 42 00:04:55,880 --> 00:05:01,400 (All this time, his wound didn't heal, because there were no medical supplies 43 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,080 and no hospitals here, in ADDURAIHIMIE besiege city) 44 00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:17,840 The wounded suffered too much because of the siege and the paramedics don't have enough experience 45 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:26,600 they didn't have the required medical knowledge to perform surgical operations or stabilize patient condition for long time 46 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:33,000 It is known that the military paramedics helps and temporarily stabilizes the wounded, the patients 47 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:38,120 and send them on ambulance to the hospital. 48 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:45,800 In the beginning we had no staff, no medicines, and no hospital 49 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:53,120 or a sterilized or clean place for the patients. 50 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:01,920 This realistic situation, made us to set up a health center. 51 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:06,600 They prepared a house to be health center for Mujahedeen 52 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:11,800 of course, with limited capabilities. 53 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:21,960 Despite that, we continued to work with what we had, a few sedatives, or some bandages 54 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:30,400 we had to work as paramedics, because we did not have the capabilities nor the required tools. 55 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:43,720 Allah grace to Mujahideen was very much, the wounds were healing even with little food and medicine. 56 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:49,000 Finally, situation went well, all thanks to Allah. 57 00:06:49,640 --> 00:07:00,520 The enemy was not satisfied facing the Mujahideen only, so they targeted the citizens. 58 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:09,880 (Air strike of the Saudi Led-Coalition is targeting ADDURAIHIMIE hospital, this is the second airstrike) 59 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:17,720 The enemy escalated the situation badly, they targeted all life support and infrastructures in the city 60 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:23,640 such as water pumps and wells, hospitals, clinics, pharmacies and markets. 61 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:30,880 (This ruin because of battleships hit on the market) 62 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,800 (This is the Maternity and Child health Center, and Al-Aqsa Specialized Hospital 63 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:41,680 they bombed it while there were wounded women and children inside 64 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:48,000 they were here, they did not even have mercy on the wounded women and children!) 65 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:57,400 Even the pharmacy near the Maternity and Child Center, that was providing us with some meds 66 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:02,680 it was targeted by airstrikes that destroyed it completely. 67 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:08,560 (This is what they have targeted, a pharmacy ... only a pharmacy) 68 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:15,680 Most of the necessary medicines were bombed, especially those used in diseases 69 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:22,720 emergency and surgical medicines, most of them were bombed and completely destroyed. 70 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:30,920 Nothing left, all meds' supplies, equipment, devices, and tools in the city were destroyed and bombed. 71 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:37,920 The enemy was not satisfied with bombing markets, health facilities and pharmacies 72 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:44,360 but it focused on the infirmaries that we setup earlier 73 00:08:44,560 --> 00:08:50,280 for example, within houses and neighborhoods, we were pursued and targeted 74 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:55,160 they bombed the houses around us, even the mosque too. 75 00:08:55,280 --> 00:09:01,960 (It was deliberate targeting of all life here in the besieged city of ADDURAIHIMIE 76 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,880 Look at this ruined house, it was an infirmary center for the wounded 77 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:11,160 which was full of many wounded citizens, including children and women) 78 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:16,800 When the enemy bombed the first urgent infirmary which set up by Mujahedeen 79 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:21,160 with their own efforts and available capabilities 80 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:26,600 By Allah's grace, there were no fatalities 81 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:39,600 the two health workers, and the wounded and the civilians who were treated there, they all came out safely. 82 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,840 - I don't want to see again. 83 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,680 - May Allah heal and cure you. 84 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:55,080 We moved the rest of the meds supplies that survived from the bombing to another place 85 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,640 and we created a new infirmary. 86 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:05,960 - They said you almost died in the battle. - Not yet, I still need to go back to fight them all. 87 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:12,040 24 Sep. 2018 24 days under siege 88 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:25,760 (This was a bombing on one of the houses in the west of ADDURAIHIMIE city) 89 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:35,280 (Today on 24 Sep. at 1:40 AM, this house was destroyed by the mercenaries) 90 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:44,320 (A citizen's house

Innocent civilians! Oh Salman!) [Salman: The Saudi king] 97 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:20,080 Targeting citizens was more and more terrible. 98 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:25,280 (Humans pieces! ... this was belonged to a little girl) 99 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:30,960 They bombed a lot of citizens, resulted more wounded of victims. 100 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:35,720 (May Allah never forgive them) 101 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:47,080 The civilian victims, where do we take them to? There are no more hospitals, no more health centers, except the infirmary that we set up for the Mujahedeen 102 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:58,920 by this situation, our duty to humanitarian and Islamic values, we had to treat and take care of the wounded civilian victims also. 103 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:11,960 We received many wounded civilian victims, children and women included 104 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:19,120 It was the first time for me to receive such cases, I was really surprised and shocked 105 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:32,160 I work with the Mujahedeen in front lines, I have never seen or dealt with children, women, or the elderly victims. 106 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:42,400 There were some very serious cases, that it was difficult to deal with 107 00:12:42,680 --> 00:12:53,640 especially victims with injuries in fatal places such as the abdomen and thighs 108 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:03,080 and brain injuries, most of the children died. 109 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:18,440 Unfortunately, our capabilities were limited, little knowledge and limited medicines. 110 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:30,880 In every case, we used to contact doctors from Sana'a Gov. or from AL HODAIDAH Gov. to consult them. 111 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:38,520 For every patient or case, we were working on, we were consulting them 112 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:43,200 I was taking photos for each case and send it to them 113 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:57,680 along with the treatment plan that I've used, to the doctors so, they tell me and explain what I should do or what is left to do. 114 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:11,560 We did our best and we got surprised that the wounds were healing.

in the city of ADDURAIHIMIE with the wounded P.O.W (Ahmed Gilan) we were unable to do anything for him 314 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:49,720 because of the malnutrition here and the lack of hospitals due to the airstrikes bombing 315 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:55,600 that led to the deterioration of his condition, actually in general for all of the wounded and sick patients in the city. 316 00:39:55,680 --> 00:40:07,480 He stayed with us about 6 months, he was very sick, he needed a hospital urgently, as he need more meds than what we have in the city 317 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:15,160 we reported to our command, and to the Prisoners Committee, and the Prisoners Committee appealed the Red Cross and the UN 318 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:19,960 as a humanitarian urgent case, so the Red Cross would enter and take this patient. 319 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:37,080 (I am the prisoner Ahmed Ismail Hassan Gilan in captivity of Ansar Allah, I do appeal to the humanitarian organizations and the USA) 320 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:45,480 The response was absolute refusal, for him to be taken by the Red Cross or any others. 321 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:53,800 I swear by Allah, no response from them, until the prisoner died in our hands effected by his injuries 322 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,120 that he wasn't treated well, due to the lack of meds and serious medical attention. 323 00:40:57,240 --> 00:41:09,760 This is their morals, the ethics of mercenaries, even for their subordinates, they have no value to them. 324 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:28,960 After a few days since their advancing from the north side of the city ... in late December 2018, the Sweden agreement was initiated. 325 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:46,080 We were informed by our command center to cease fire, and we did, but at that day 326 00:41:46,240 --> 00:41:58,120 the mercenaries ceased fire only for about one hour, but after that, they bombed the city. 327 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:23,280 It was truce ... but only on the media news, and it's different in field, there were much truce breaches. 328 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:33,000 (As you can see, this is the mercenaries truce breaches in the besieged city) 329 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:38,000 Allah made them ignorant, Allah let them down, Allah made them lost. 330 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:44,320 Sometimes they call for a truce, and then they breach it themselves. 331 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:51,400 (As you can see, this is the mercenaries truce breaches in north east of the besieged city) 332 00:42:51,720 --> 00:42:59,560 When our command sends an order to us to cease, we execute, if orders says to open fire, we execute. 333 00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:10,320 The enemy did not comply with the truce at least for one day, only the warplanes were stopped, but air reconnaissance was on sky all day 334 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:15,280 in ADDURAIHIMIE, or in AL HODAIDAH generally 335 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:21,960 and targeting the city with artillery, tanks, and mortars was continuous. 336 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:33,200 (Enemy's mercenaries bombing the citizens houses in ADDURAIHIMIE city, also gun shots are heard clearly) 337 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:39,560 Also, their advances and raids were still continuous on the city. 338 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:51,440 They also targeted the citizens, and many times they were exposed by the media and AL MASIRAH channel 339 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:59,720 many recorded clips proved their aggression on citizens and their houses and properties during the truce time. 340 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:10,720 (These are the houses of the sieged citizens that were targeted by enemy artillery, it was heavy bombing) 341 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:17,760 The truce is the groundwork of the plot, because on field, nobody in the city touched the truce on the contrary, the battle was crueler 342 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:23,560 and they felt the agony of the truce, and no use of the truce, it was draining them 343 00:44:23,720 --> 00:44:28,400 continues bombing, and choking siege. 344 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:41,560 Sometimes the enemy goes too far, a whole month sweeping the city with intensive mortars shells on the city and certainly, the civilians are the most victims. 345 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,960 (This is what the enemy forces just done) 346 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:57,040 (Projectile fell on my house, while we were sleeping) 347 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,120 (Bombs dropped on us every hour 348 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:04,520 they are bombing our houses since mid-night when we were sleeping 1:00 AM o'clock 349 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:10,120 our houses destroyed, broken, burned, they 've killed us, we are devastated 350 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:15,080 we're starving, we can't find any foods nothing left in hour homes) 351 00:45:15,720 --> 00:45:26,680 (I lost my eye, and my other eye is getting weaker, I can't see anymore, and we're trapped, and they still bombing us, we are tired of this 352 00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:33,800 under fear, starving, sick, ... we are dying) 353 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:42,800 To be continued ... 354 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:54,440 In the next part
