The Houthis’ military media on September 22 released footage it said shows recent operations along Yemen’s western coast, including attacks on Saudi-backed government forces and the capture of military positions and equipment.
The footage covered fighting across six districts and more than 27 military camps, according to the Houthi-run Al-Masirah TV, which quoted a military source as saying more than 600 government fighters were killed or wounded during the offensive.
The 43-minute video showed Houthi forces entering positions in areas including Mokha, Hays and the southern Red Sea coast.
The footage also showed captured weapons, vehicles and military facilities, as well as drone and missile strikes on government forces.
The releases come after a major Houthi offensive along Yemen’s Red Sea coast, codenamed by the group “Operation God is Stronger in Might and More Severe in Punishment.”
The Houthis captured the strategic port city of Mokha on September 10 and subsequently reached Perim island and the coastal town of Dhubab near the Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
The advance has significantly changed the military situation along the western coast and brought the Houthis closer to controlling territory around one of the world’s key maritime chokepoints. Fighting has also triggered a new wave of displacement in Yemen.

the globalist installed despotic yemeni government resides is jeddah saudi arabia. the freedom fighters ( ansar allah ) reject this tyranny
the sniper headshots are so scary, the skull breaks open and helmet goes flying. imagine just losing your life not even knowing what happened.
almost no pain. at war, it’s an enjoyable death.
indeed, could be much, much worse with weeks on hot sun or severe frost without water or food, losing your limbs, but keep fighting. this is what really happened.
tens of armored vehicles and just few of them damaged, mainly tires got shots. most of them are ready for use, crews escaped or may be captured. “ansar allah” re-equiping from “toyotas” to something cool, armored and with air conditioning. it’s like the new year for them with a lot of gifts from generous saudian malik (king).
