This is old stuff and propaganda

the video is heavily recycled. While it was reposted on Twitter/X on October 8, 2026, the underlying footage is actually from September 2019

The Original Event
The video is an excerpt from a massive propaganda package released by Houthi-run Al Masirah TV on September 29, 2019. [1, 2]

• The Operation: The Houthis titled this cross-border ambush "Victory from God" (نصر من الله). They claimed it took place in August 2019 in the mountainous Najran axis along the Saudi-Yemeni border. [1, 2]

Majority of the Houthi tweets are reccyling fake footages from Homs and Syria military convoys etc etc

The Houthis are still fighting with the mindset of the old Soviet Union.

Since their control over Al-Makha and Bab al-Mandab on September 10, they have begun digging trenches and preparing combat positions under direct field supervision from leaders in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, awaiting direct confrontation battles from within them.

However, the Southern Giants Brigades surprised them by adopting flanking and maneuvering tactics while avoiding traditional frontal confrontation.

This decisive tactic was the most prominent factor in tearing apart Houthi forces along the coast, as it saved a great deal of time and effort, and reduced human and material losses by a massive margin, to the point that Houthi brigades became caught between annihilation and capture.

Surely Iranian advisers wouldn't tell them to do that? Seems highly irrational. Perhaps they were digging tunnels rather than trenches.
