Houthis Strike Saudi Command & Control Center With Precision-Guided Rocket

Illustrative image, source: the Houthis media wing

The Houthis announced in the late hours of August 9 that their missile force had launched a Badir-1P precision-guided artillery rocket at a command and control center of Saudi-backed forces south of the Saudi province of Najran.

A source in the missile force told the al-Masirah TV that rocket struck the command and control center, killing and injuring dozens of Saudi-backed fighters.

“The strike came after a careful intelligence operation, where the battles on the border [between Yemen and Saudi Arabia] were being commanded from these rooms [in the targeted center],” the Yemeni channel quoted the source as saying.

The Badir-1P, which was revealed last year, is an INS\GPS guided version of the Badir-1 solid fuel artillery rocket. Experts believe that the Badir-1 family is derived from the Iranian-made Fajir-5 rocket.

There was no immediate comment by the Saudi-led coalition on the Houthis’ claims. This usually indicates that the attack was successful.

Earlier, the Houthis held the Saudi-led coalition responsible for the assassination of their leader’s younger brother. However, it remains unclear if the rocket strike was a response to the assassination.

The Badr-1 210 mm is a Yemeni military, self-propelled, multiple rocket launcher; a type of rocket artillery, used by Houthis. It features a twin tube launcher mounted on a 6×6 truck.

On 28 October 2018, a guided version called the Badr-1P with a range of 150 kilometres (93 mi) and an accuracy of 3 metres (10 ft) was announced.

America and their puppets Saudis and Israel will be ashamed for what they have done to poor nations. They are all childbutchers. They call these wars civil wars and not call it US terrorism which is a war crime.

Well said

Feudalism Victory

Relentless prudent aggressiveness. I like these houthis.

Zionism = EVIL

The moron MBS should have read a history of Zaidi Shia and tribal structure of Yemeni society. These guys have protected their lands from foreigners since pre-biblical era and the Queen of Sheba. The Yemenis simply don’t cotton to any arsehole invading their lands.

Assad must stay (gr8rambino)

Oooooohoohooooo NICE!

Zionism = EVIL

Let’s keep a few glaring FACTS in mind, when the Saudi arseholes decided to dig their grave in Yemen in 2015 and invaded along with UAE pimps to install a puppet Hadi government in Aden, the Ansarallah and Yemeni military were basically armed with light weaponry as 90% of their Soviet era weaponry was out of commission. The Americunts and Zionists told the Saudi cowards that it will be an “easy victory” if they used indiscriminate bombing on the civilians and destroyed the almost non-existent infrastructure of Yemen, the Arab world’s poorest nation. The retarded freak MBS is confirmed to have his puny brains suck up his dumbarse as he took his Americunt masters line hook and sinker and unleashed a relentless and barbaric bombing campaign of Yemen’s civilians. The moron only overlooked one obvious reality that Yemen is a proud tribal society that separated itself from the Sunni and Wahhabi extremism by adopting the Zaidi Shia faith almost 1400 years ago based on a branch of the Shia Imamiya of Iran. The Zaidi now constitute over 60% of more of the Yemeni population and are fiercely independent as the Egyptian morons found in the 1960’s. At the onset of the moronic Saudi invasion, the Zaidi just wanted to protect their faith and lands, but as the Saudi brutality increased, they closed ranks with many Sunni tribals who also hate the uppity Saudi and UAE whores.

Yemen in 2015, could barely assemble a rifle, today it is producing high-tech missiles and drones and Saudis are now totally exposed and have made eternal enemies of the some of the toughest fighters on earth. The 4 years of defeating the Americunts, NATO puppets and trillions of dollars worth of western weaponry have made the Ansarallah into a legend like the Hezbollah. Actually, the average Yemeni is a rural khat chewing warrior and tougher than Hezbollah who are more educated and urbane. The AnsarAllah warrior can live off dates, camel milk and goat cheese for months and requires no supply lines. They are bonded by tribal ties and each casualty makes more enemies. In short, the Saudi morons are fucked truly and much worse is yet to come, unless they withdraw and pay Yemen war reparations. The ugly fat pimp MBS would have been executed in any normal country for creating such a disaster.

somebody should give them anti-air missiles and the war will be over after some weeks…

Zionism = EVIL

They have manpads and the Soviet era SA2 and mobile SA-6 are being repaired and upgraded and that is reason the Saudi shitheads have restricted their bombing of civilians even. A Saudi F-15 was hit by a SAM 6 north of Sanaa with two Saudi scum dead. Since then the cowards only bomb soft targets at night. There are reports that they are working of a domestic version of BUK and may have deployed it.

The F-15 shown in this picture made it back to base. I wonder why the Houthies didn’t show the plane going to the ground if they claim it was shot down? Keep spewing lies.
