Sanaa is boiling now

Violent clashes and unprecedented security chaos are taking place in the occupied capital #Sanaa, amid a sharp escalation of disputes and settling of scores between the leaders of the Houthi militias, which have turned into street battles.

This is tragic. How much more Muslim blood is going to be spilled ? I'm not even there but if I was there I'd be crying seeing Muslims young men one after another dying for elites + Trump admin/Israel pitting us against each other

The Houthis reported destroying what they called "criminal tempts" in the capital, Sana'a, carried out by the Saudi enemy under the guidance of Daesh (ISIS).

Ansar Allah (Houthi) supporters launched the largest wave of missile and drone attacks to date, targeting various areas across Saudi Arabia. Military bases and oil facilities are currently being targeted across several regions in Saudi Arabia.

Saudi civil defense issued alerts for Jeddah, Abha, Al Ula, Jizan, Yanbu, Khamis Mushait, Taif and, for the first time, for the Farasan Islands.

it's not us or Muslims against each other. Trump, zionia and Brits are using their proxy Ale-Saud to prevent rise of independent Yemen and losing control of Bab-Al-Mandab.

If Ale-Saud wins, it means Israeli camp won, which is bad for Palestinians. If Ansarallah/Sanaa government wins, it means Israeli camp lost, which is good for Palestinians.

Modern warfare is not confined to firing missiles and drones or heavy bombing with fighter jets. It’s much more than that. Achieving dominance in other domains, in fact, plays much more crucial role in the battlefield. Iranians have not faced the actual war just because Iran's opponents (i.e. US and Israel) could not afford to launch a full-scale war against Iranian forces, primarily because they were unwilling to take obvious risks involved in the actual ground war. Despite heavy aerial bombing by US and Israel and vast destruction, Iranians could not be forced to give in. That provided Iranians with an opportunity for claiming a 'victory' over their enemies and thumping their chest. This was not even a full-scale war; rather it can be regarded as a shallow war.

During a typical conventional war, ground forces try rapidly moving their tanks, artillery, and other weapons to outmaneuver the enemy and use these weapons for devastating effect. However, one of the most crucial aspects in a conventional war is to draw the war plans, test, refine, and practice these plans in the peace time and best use them during the war. An military commander able to outmaneuver the enemy can easily offset enemy's quantitative and, to an extent, qualitative superiority on the battlefield. Iranians have not faced such a challenge in their war with the US and Israel. However, if the performance of Iranian IRGC in Syria can be used as a yardstick, one can easily say that Iranians suck at the conventional military skills.
