Published 2 years ago
Footage released by Iranian-backed Houthi fighters on Jan. 10, 2022 shows an attack against pro Saudi forces with small arms and explosive projectiles in Yemen.
During the assault, at least one of the pro Saudi armored personnel carrier is immobilized by a direct hit from an anti tank guided missile (ATGM), which is used to initiate the contact. The vehicle was fully manned, and the Saudi troops rapidly pile out of it while it is still rolling.
The exit the vehicle into a heavy hail of somewhat accurate small arms fire, and the scramble for cover. A short time later, another Saudi APC arrives to begin evacuating troops from the besieged outpost. The vehicle takes several hits, but appears to exfiltrate the area intact.
