BEIRUT, LEBANON (5:25 A.M.) - Video footage (below) has been released showing the moment that Houthi rebels engaged a truck full of Saudi-backed fighters in Yemen's Al-Jawf Governorate.

Houthi forces employed an anti-tank guided missile system (likely of the Russian-built Konkurs or Fagot type) to attack the truck, scoring a direct hit on the vehicle and completely destroying it.

According to sources, at least six Saudi-backed fighters were present in the truck, all of them most likely being killed as a result of the explosion.

In a separate event, Houthi rebels also claim to have recently downed an American-built MQ-9 combat drone over central Yemen. So far no picture or video evidence has been released to prove the announcement.
