Houthis claim drone strikes on Saudi forces and vehicles on Jizan-Asir border

Unverified · Jizan-Asir border area, Saudi Arabia (approximate: Jizan) · 2026-10-20 16:53 UTC

The Houthis, as relayed by @OSINTWarfare and Tasnim News, say drones struck gatherings of Saudi forces or mercenaries, pickup trucks and tanks along the Jizan and Asir border fronts, and released footage. Tasnim News attributes to the Yemeni Armed Forces a claim that the strikes killed dozens; no other claim gives a casualty figure. The @bonzerbarry post reports Rajum drops hitting armored vehicles and technicals in Jazan and Asir without naming an attacker. No Saudi statement appears among the claims.
