On January 29, Saudi-backed forces thwarted an infiltration by the Houthis (Ansar Allah) in the northern Yemeni province of Saada.

According to the al-Arabiya TV, Houthi fighters attempted to infiltrate Saudi-led coalition defenses west of the al-Tibab al-Suwd hills in the district of Baqim. The district is located near the border with the Saudi province of ‘Asir.

“The infiltration attempt by the terrorist Houthi militias west of al-Tibab al-Suwd is the most violent since the middle of last year,” Col. Hilal al-Abbasi of the Saudi-backed 5th Border Guard Brigade told the UAE-based channel.

Col. al-Abbasi added that several armored vehicles of the Houthis were targeted by the artillery of Saudi-backed forces while heading to Baqim’s center.

According to al-Arabiya, seven Houthi fighters were killed by Saudi-backed forces. Several vehicles of the Yemeni group were also destroyed.

The clashes in Baqim highlights the unstable situation in Yemen. The Houthis carry out such attacks in response to the Saudi-led coalition airstrikes.

Assad must stay

Shit its supposed to be the other way around!!! Houthis killing saudis!!!!

Johnny B. Allan

There are no saudis either way… Read the article throughly it says ”Saudi-led” Not Saudis. These are either Hadi’s boys or the Southern separatists crushing the Houthis

occupybacon

Ofcourse it’s Soutern separatists, Saada is their capital, isn’t it? ;)

Assad must stay

Furkan Sahin

inshallah they reach riyadh and win

Johnny B. Allan

All while kicking the living shit out of Headcutter led forces, and carrying out effective attacks on Headcutter infrastructure. Actual Headcutter forces are even less able to cope with the Houthis.
Support for the Headcutters is diminishing worldwide, direct weapons sales to the Headcurters has stopped by several countries.
The blockade of Yemen’s port by Western Naval forces is threatened by the more technologically advanced, and more capable Naval forces out of sympathy with the Western causes, recently.
The fact that “Karma” tends to favor those not wrong in battles of this nature, gives the Houthis advantage the Headcutters, and their Western partners will never have.

farbat

this means one simple thing and that is that saudis will be targeted in a manner which will hurt and the same with uae

farbat

if one single thing happens in iraq again than uae and saudis are going to be pinched from north and south direction

farbat

the saudis are losing control of the red sea right now as we speak so they are really done and i guess it will be 1 or 2 years til they will knee utterly and nearly collapse and either way the fact that yemen will exist and there is no doubt about it is a loss for saudis and co

farbat

so its 100000s of saudi mercs and 1000s of saudis and 100s of ansarullah

farbat

the saudis try to make the smallest nonsense look like a victory and they still dont get that they did lose long ago and that there is no party in yemen anymore loyal to saudis all they are loyal to nowadays is money and they are sucking it up from saudis and if they cant pay they will turn against their masters

farbat

the saudis are really the most idiotic entity in west asia and they are really the one trick pony which can only deliver oil and this new attempt of zionists to make them look serious is absurd because the vehicles of the yemenis werent donkeys like before so its clear who did advance and win and if they come down with such vehicles than the positions of saudis are all under fire already and only ambushes get them somewhere

Joaquin

Agreed 100%

farbat

this is actually a symbol of loss this ambush on a yemeni vehicle which looked quite new because saudi was on the defense and that with small arms against yemenis who were starting this war in sandals driving around with heavy equipment

Proud Hindu

Lol.Shia crescent collapsing!

farbat

saudis are obviously in the defense XD

farbat

you do get that these yemenis started this war in sandals right XD

farbat

100 losses was nothing for them during these days and its no different today

farbat

they just did a false flag in india and tell me what does it amount to other than causing friction in india which is facing a revolt already

Proud Hindu

Look,please talk something sensible , otherwise dont bother to reply to my comments

farbat

what did the false flag on the embassy cause other than problems for india internally?

farbat

iran doesnt even care and its supposed to make iran care so its a failed attempt

farbat

they hurt themselves and others more than they can hurt iran XD

farbat

this yemen issue is going to backfire big time yemen will own quite alot of arabian lands in future because of this simply because yemenis are drilled by war now and the arabs are generally weak and incoherent

johnny rotten

Wahhabi pedophiles align themselves with their Jewish masters in the unrestrained lie.

Fake news.

“According to Al Arabiya” oh really? We suppose to believe this shit? And waht kind of proof is this? Shooting several bullets in nothing and that’s all.

Acording to common sense Yemenis did great job and captured several very important positions.
