United states Navy SEa Air and Land special forces (private mercenaries) conduct a raid on the village of al-Ghyeel, Yemen, killing 14 civilians and 14 militiamen, who were defending their village.  Commander-in-Chief Trump claims the raid was a success as one-terabyte of intelligence was gathered from undamaged laptops and cellphones seized from a house that was completely destroyed in an airstrike.

       NOTE: Only one SEAL died in the raid.
