Large Blast Rocks Houthi-Held Yemeni Capital (Video)

A large blast rocked a mountain near Sanaa city on November 30 afternoon, sparking speculations of an attack on the Yemeni capital which is held by the Houthis (Ansar Allah).

The blast took place at the summit of Attan mountain, where several military facilities are allegedly located. Video footage posted to social media showed a fire and a large column of white smoke rising from the mountain. No casualties were reported.

The Houthis are yet to clarify the causes of the blast. Some Yemeni activists said that the blast emitted from a cooking gas plant and depot. However, other activists speculated that a military facility was attacked by Israel, or even the United States.

The Houthis, who control a large part of Yemen and maintain a large arsenal of missiles and drones, are a part of the so-called “Axis of Resistance” which is backed by Iran and opposes Israel.

After the start of the war on the Palestinian Gaza Strip, the Houthis launched several attacks with missiles and drones against Israel. The group also seized an Israeli-owned ship and vowed to target any other one that approaches Yemen. Israel vowed to respond.

However, the Houthis ceased all operations against Israel after the temporary ceasefire in Gaza entered into effect on November 24.

The Attan mountain blast came less than 24 hours after the U.S. military said that one of its warships intercepted a drone launched by the Houthis from Yemen over the Red Sea. This was not however the first such incident, thus it is most likely not linked to the blast.

if the yemens could survive all that saudi onslaught. you’d figure they could survive anything the zios or their american lackeys would hit them with.

if this is a ‘message’ from the us or israel, they should expect a reply. so far, the houthis have been restrained, sending only volleys…not entire swarms. but that could change. any losses by either from such a tactic will be spectacular. at any rate, the continued shooting down of missiles and drones is in itself a tactic. one that reduces the enemies arsenals. the outcome of which should be obvious.

houthis are iran’s other, other, # metoo army, and they are going to find out the hard way that israel has adopted the fafo doctrine…the israel story, over 80 years or so, has been the new kid on the playground, they tried to kick his ash when he first showed up, failed, called the teacher when israel started kicking their ashes instead accusing israel of bullying. well, now the process is continuing and israel will kick the houthis’ ash. then its off to talk to dear ol’ dad in iran…

a plaintive squeal from an anglozionazi that can’t disguise the fact that the welfare warfare genocide machine in apartheid, occupied palestine is going down in flames. get used to the new game already because your idiot golem in ussa is not only bankrupt but also ready to tear itself apart. what good is a retarded idiot golem that can no longer cover for the zionazi$? no good at all.
