(NSFW) Houthis Publish Latest Offensive in Jizan
Published 3 years ago
Houthi Fighters have published their latest offensive in what is allegedly the Jizan Province. It shows them easily overtaking a position defended by out of country mercenaries who barely put up a fight.
It's very hard to know the truth of the situation on the ground in Jizan right now. If you look at Snapchat stories and Tweets coming out of the region from people who live there, you would have no idea there is even a conflict happening. Take to Reddit or Telegram channels in the area however, and a picture much like what you see in this video is painted. Those stories show a countryside full of barely trained, under-paid mercenaries holding suicidal defensive positions against meagerly armed Houthi fighters running at them in sandals.
This video, which was released by the Houthis, shows them pushing one of those Saudi Mercenary positions out in the middle of nowhere. According to the Saudi Government, this fighting is happening in the Marib region, which is quite some distance from Jizan. According to the Houthis that released the footage, this fighting took place smack dab in the middle of no-where rural Jizan.
Time will tell the truth, as it always does. For now, we can't be sure of the facts due to misinformation campaigns from both sides of the fighting, we can only point out both sides of the story and release the footage as it becomes available to us. We'll continue to do that until a definitive answer can be provided from factual evidence based in reality. Documenting this footage now, and keeping it on our private servers where it can't be removed saves that evidence long-term regardless of any government's influence.
