In Video: Houthis Capture Mountain Chain Near Saudi Border

The Houthis (Ansar Allah) have recaptured the al-Mutabiq mountain chain on the border with the southern Saudi province of Najran from Saudi-backed forces.

On January 24, the Yemeni group released footage of its large-scale attack on the mountain chain. The footage shows Houthi fighters advancing in the mountain chain area as they clash with Saudi-led coalition proxies.

During the attack, the Houthis destroyed several vehicles of Saudi-backed forces with anti-tank guided missiles, rocket-propelled grenades and recoilless rifles.

Saudi-backed forces imposed control of the al-Mutabiq mountain chain last December following a fierce battle with the Houthis. Now, the mountain chain is once again under the Yemeni group control.

The Houthis’ attack on al-Mutabiq highlights the Saudi-led coalition’s failure to secure the border between Saudi Arabia and Yemen.

While the Saudi-led coalition bombs Yemen on a daily basis, its proxies have been failing to make any progress on the ground. The coalition’s airstrikes are only leading to more escalation.

That bit with the Saudi money was poetic, I don’t need to speak Arabic to understand the message: This traitor died for a few Saudi Riyals which are just worthless bits of paper to a Yemeni patriot.

Assad must stay

Frankly, the Zaidi Shia are the true essence of Muslim fighters. They are natural born fighters and the idiotic Saudis simply FU cked with the wrong people. Now vengeance from hell is coming.

The Houthi soldiers have shown them to the worlds bravest mountain warfare experts, in my opinion.
Against all odds and against the might of some of the most powerful repressive regimes, the Houthis have displayed valour that the Saudi coalition can only dream of.

I would have thought that the UK advisers to the Saudis would have warned against attempting to enslave the people of Yemen.
The British Army withdrew from Yemen in the 60’s after a bloody and failed campaign.

The Chinese are already breathing down our necks. You want to make enemies of 450 million Bangadeshis and Pakistanis too. That is exactly what Ghandi ji wanted to avoid and was killed by Hindu madar chod extremists like you gandu.

Shows very low class gloating at an industrial accident. Even by Indian standards you are a gutter spine. Shameful.

Please excuse this ignorant troll. India is buying more Iranian oil than ever and our cooperation is at a peak.

Ashok Varma

This idiot is a troll and a child and an insult to all Indians. Indians love Persians who we call Parsi and have been part of India fabric since Zoroastrian times. Hinduism has adopted many great Persian practices and our language of the Mogul court was Farsi for 400 years that later became Urdu/Hindi but retained 70% Farsi words. These idiots types are a disgrace. India just week delivered four super cranes for Chah Bahar port project. Even a coward uneducated liar like Modi can not undermine the longstanding Indo-Persian ties.

Stupid fool, here is basic knowledge about India madar chod bhinsere kay gandu.

70-75 million Shia in India, especially around Lucknow and UP regions,
due to large scale Iranian immigration since Abkar, the Taj Mahal was
built by architects from Isfahan Nesf e Jehan. Muslim population website
lists India as the second largest Shia population in the world.

Evan Vokes

so what, June 2020 Sheikh Yasir Qadhi proved your non prophet has a book with so many holes in it, its worthless
I heard Mohammad was Black, is it true? you would have to actually read the book to find out but if you did read the book….now you have a problem
Why would you fight for the ideology of a racist white supremacist, slave trading, pedophile, camel train robbing murderer. If you haven’t figured these points out maybe actually read the koran and hadiths
