Houthi Media Office Releases Video of Advance Against Saudi-Backed Forces in Southern Yemen
Houthi media arm releases undated video showing a vehicle on fire and fighters among vehicles abandoned by Saudi-backed forces in southern Yemen.
The media arm of Yemen's Houthi rebels has released undated video that it says shows an advance by Houthi fighters against Saudi-backed forces in southern Yemen.
The footage, distributed by the Ansar Allah Media Office, shows a vehicle burning during the operation. In a second scene, Houthi fighters are seen among vehicles that the group says were abandoned by Saudi-backed forces as they withdrew.
The location of the reported advance was not disclosed, and the date on which the events were filmed could not be independently verified. The video was released on Saturday, September 12, 2026.
Yemen's conflict has pitted the Iran-aligned Houthis against a Saudi-led coalition and allied Yemeni forces for years, with fighting repeatedly flaring in the country's south. The footage is the latest in a series of media releases by the group's information wing, which regularly publishes material from its military operations.
No casualty figures or further operational details were included in the release.
