Today marks sixty days of the houthis tyranny and inhumane
terrorism upon Daarul Hadeeth Dammaaj. Yesterday the houthis began an attack
from night time all the way to about 6am from almost all directions of the Markaz (institute). As usual they attacked with consistent bombardment of all kind of artillery (heavy, medium, and small). 20 injured 5 dead. One of the students was practical beheaded from heavy artillery. The Main Masjid was hit with tank
artillery for the second and third time. This morning during the attack and tonight as we were praying 'Ishaa (the night prayer). The Masjid was hit at least five times on different sides.

Say:
"Nothing shall ever happen to us except what Allah has ordained for us. He
is our Mawlaa (Lord, Helper and Protector)." And in Allah let the
believers put their trust. [009:051]

Those
(i.e. believers) to whom the people (hypocrites) said, "Verily, the people
(pagans) have gathered against you (a great army), therefore, fear them."
But it (only) increased them in Faith, and they said: "Allah (Alone) is
Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us)." [003:173]
And nothing that will occur except that which is written in the Lawh Al-Mahfoodh. We ask the One Who heals to heal our injured and accept those who have passed as Shuhadaa.

Counter-attacking the sniper
Once a sniper's position is known or suspected, other options follow:
Fire Support: If the sniper's general position can be determined by other means, the area can be bombarded by mortars, artillery, or close air support. Rockets, guided missiles, anti-armor/anti-fortification weapons and other direct fire options may also be used by the forces in contact, as well.
Smoke screen: In urban settings or other environments with limited movement and fields of view, smoke can be an effective means to screen friendly movement. This can be used either to pass through and escape, or to close in on and eliminate the enemy sniper. Ordinary soldiers can still do damage through smoke by firing randomly or on intuition, but a sniper loses his precision advantage and is far less likely to hit anything with his much lower possible shot volume. A determined enemy, such as an emplaced heavy machine gun, will fire randomly through smoke, so this is a dangerous tactic. It should also be noted that weapons of opportunity may also provide a smoke screen, anything from igniting a car's gas tank, oil drum, or using fragmentation grenades to throw up debris and quickly break line of sight and concentration. Flash-bang (distraction) grenades have a wider blast radius than fragmentation grenades.
Rush: Also known as "Close With And Destroy." If the squad is pinned down by sniper fire and taking casualties, the order may be given to rush the sniper's position. If the sniper is too far away for a direct rush, a "rush to cover" can also be used. The squad may take casualties, but with many moving targets and a slow-firing rifle, the losses are usually small compared to holding position and being slowly picked off.
Pincer movement: If the sniper's position is known but direct retaliation is not possible, a pair of squads can move through concealment (preferably cover) and drive the sniper toward the group containing the targets. This decreases the chances that the sniper will find a stealthy, quick escape route. A pincer movement attack can be combined with artillery or mortar fire, so long as this is tightly coordinated, i.e. the target area covered by bombardment does not overlap with the movement of the counter-attacking troops. Even if bombardment does not kill or wound the sniper, it may flush him from cover.
Basic sniper identification method
The defenders monitor contact. As soon as contact is taken, the defenders try to make sure to take cover. If the defenders are on dismount, they try to make sure cover is the closest and most secure cover possible. If the defenders are mounted, they try to ensure all gunners reduce to "Chin strap defilade" where nothing is showing out of the vehicle but the chin and above. The defenders try to ensure the gunner has proper shielding.
The defenders scan the area to locate the snipers position.
The defenders pop smoke to cover and conceal their position.
The defenders designate the element, close in with the element and destroy the enemy.
Oh Allaah, the Creator and Owner of the universe, give victory to Ahlus-Sunnah wherever they may be, make us and our beloved brothers and sisters from AhlusSunnah firm in your obedience and give us good end. Aameen.
