That is the problem in getting involved in these family run ego driven enterprises in the middle east. Both Türkiye and Pakistan approach the region through geostrategic lenses of strategic thought and interests, and what we have in Saudi v UAE is family feuds via other countries. The leadership process is not dynamic, and that is the problem with the whole of the middle east right now.

( Though Pakistan is now falling into not have a dynamic leadership with the rise of the "Field Marshal" - but that is a topic for a different thread ).

Yes, Yemen's Houthi rebels have advanced to within 80 kilometres (50 miles) of Aden, marking their closest approach to the temporary capital since the early months of the war in 2015. [1]

Key Details of the Advance

• • Distance to Aden: Military sources reported in early November 2026 that Houthi forces moved within roughly 80 km of the southern port city. [1, 2]
  • Territorial Shift: Following a broader offensive starting in September 2026 along Yemen's Red Sea coast and the Bab al-Mandab Strait, Houthi fighters captured the Al-Maqatirah district and pushed government troops back toward the Tur al-Bahah district in Lahj province. [1, 2]
  • Threatened Supply Lines: The push threatens key mountain positions and the main road linking Aden with the besieged city of Taiz. [1, 2]
  • Attacks on Infrastructure: Houthi forces have intensified long-range strikes and drone/missile attacks against Aden, targeting locations including the Aden International Airport, the Al-Maashiq presidential palace, and local military camps. [1, 2, 3]

Looks like Yemenis are feigning retreat in certain sectors to advance further in more important sectors

Saudi Arabia is digging its own grave here. Why on earth would they hand over weapons like these to the Yemeni government forces???

This is not true my brother..

I have already mentioned it that unit was not very large and it was only to disrupt the Giants offensive into Mukha and Hoedidah.. Like diverting tactcs!

And this is what happened to them.. They have been pushed back to Al Turbah and majority of them killed in the last 2 days
