Lebanese newspaper "Al-Akhbar":
Information regarding the sending of young men from Tripoli (#Libya)to #Syria for military training, without informing them about the nature of the missions they would be assigned.
The "Al-Amshat" and "Al-Hamzat" factions sent members from their ranks to fight alongside #Saudi forces against "#AnsarAllah" [#YAF] in #Yemen in exchange for high monthly salaries.
Estimates suggest that around two thousand Syrian fighters are likely to be transferred to Yemen via #Turkey and then Saudi Arabia.
(note : Same playbook as in the Syrian War whereas the estimates were around 50.000 at the very initial stages of the war)
Information indicates Turkish support for the process of transferring Syrian fighters to Yemen.
The information provided by the newspaper regarding recruitment and transportation operations did not include, in the presented text, any official confirmation from the relevant authorities.

Yemen secures international recognition of sovereignty over key Red Sea passages:
With Yemeni forces completing their control over the entire western coastline of the #RedSea overlooking some of the most important shipping routes in the Middle East, international reactions have begun to follow. However, these reactions have largely come against Saudi Arabia, which had sought to portray the developments as a threat to international navigation. So how did the international positions unfold?
The developments began at the #UN Security Council, which held an emergency session on the situation in the Bab al-Mandab Strait. #Saudi Arabia strongly pushed for the session through #France and the #UK, seeking international cover for an escalation in #Yemen. Riyadh was at least hoping for a statement condemning those it refers to as the “Houthis,” while its representative spent much of the session portraying the control of the strategic strait by the group as a threat to international navigation, rather than merely a threat to Saudi Arabia.
Contrary to Saudi Arabia’s expectations, and despite its belief that international organizations had become subject to its influence and financial leverage, the responses were different. Successive statements by representatives of major powers at the council expressed no particular concern over the control of Bab al-Mandab by wrongly described as the “Houthis.” Instead the Yemeni Armed Foces ( #YAF) , their statements focused on the need for negotiations and a diplomatic solution, precisely the path Saudi Arabia does not want.
The session ended without even issuing a statement, after which senior officials from major powers began making their positions clear. America, having experienced the costs of war several times, quickly reaffirmed its commitment to the truce and its objective of avoiding further confrontation in Yemen. #Russia presented an initiative aimed at rescuing Saudi Arabia that included returning to the implementation of the previously proposed roadmap that Riyadh had rejected. China, meanwhile, explicitly stated through its foreign minister that it categorically opposed expanding the conflict into Yemen, in a reference to Saudi military mobilizations.
According to this interpretation, the positions of the major powers carry one clear message:
Yemen has the right to assert control over its coastline and vital maritime passages, provided that it remains committed to securing maritime navigation. #Sanaa has made such commitments since the beginning of its efforts to expel the remaining coalition forces from the western coast. The positions therefore constitute indirect recognition of Yemen’s sovereignty and rejection of Saudi efforts to expand the war.

Saudi Arabia offers Ansarallah two-week ceasefire ahead of proposed direct talks
Saudi Arabia has offered Ansarallah a two-week ceasefire followed by direct negotiations, with Riyadh reportedly prepared to discuss humanitarian demands and pursue a comprehensive settlement, Al-Akhbar reported.
The proposal was conveyed through Omani mediation following contacts involving Saudi Arabia, the US, Egypt, Pakistan, and Oman.
Ansarallah has reportedly shown little enthusiasm for the proposal, instead demanding a comprehensive settlement that lifts the air, land, and sea blockade on Yemen and includes the withdrawal of Saudi military, security, and political forces from the country.
Riyadh has also expressed readiness to lift the blockade and allow humanitarian aid into Yemen, according to the report.

Yemeni Armed Foces strike Riyadh airport
Saudi channels report a powerful explosion and black smoke at the capital's airfield. Sources previously noted an attempt by #AnsarAllah to attack one of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's residences, located 1,200 km from the Yemeni border.
The success of this operation remains unclear as satellite imagery predates the strike, and no verified proof of damage is available.

Saudi Arabia Attacked Yemen With Shahed Drone Clone For First Time (Videos)
Saudi Arabia has used its #SKYWASP one-way attack drone in a strike on the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, marking the first known combat use of the newly developed system by the kingdom.
The drone was spotted flying over the #YAF-held capital on September 18 as #Saudi Arabia intensified its air campaign against the group following its recent advances along #Yemen's western coast.
SKYWASP was developed through SR2Vector, a joint venture formed by Saudi defense company SR2 Defense Systems and U.S. #drone developer #Vector. The partnership was established earlier this year as part of a broader effort to manufacture advanced unmanned systems inside the kingdom.
The drone is designed as a one-way attack system intended to reach targets at long distances before delivering its payload.

The war in Yemen has been relatively invisible in Western public debate compared to wars prosecuted by antagonists and enemies, as in Syria and Ukraine. This is despite the scale of civilian harm in Yemen: the United Nations Development Programme estimated in November 2021 that 377,000 people would be killed due to conflict by the end of that year; of these, almost 60% would be indirect deaths due to lack of access to food, water, and healthcare

This region is home to one of the largest and most important airbases of the #Saudi army, and in fact, one of the Saudi’s five main airbases.
It remains to be seen what specific target the Yemeni army was aiming for with this attack, despite being located ~ 2000km away.

The Saudi-Israeli War On Yemen’s Resistance: Intelligence Sharing, Civilian Targets & Sectarian Propaganda | Mint Press
Scrambling to halt the ongoing offensive of Yemen’s Armed Forces(YAF), Israel and Saudi Arabia have strengthened ties through a joint covert campaign aimed at salvaging what remains of their supremacy in the #RedSea region. Tel Aviv and Riyadh’s losses of key military strongholds in Yemen’s Western coast, has ushered in a new era of soft-normalisation.
Saudi Arabia has carried out hundreds of airstrikes in Yemen, resulting in thousands of casualties since its renewed bombing campaign began this July. It now heavily relies on Israeli targeting intelligence backing in order to conduct dozens of strikes across Yemeni territory on a daily basis, including attacks on civilian market places and residential buildings..

The Ansarallah-led Yemeni Armed Forces (#YAF) have reportedly seized the Al-Safiya area and cut the main supply road linking #Taiz with #Aden, effectively tightening the encirclement of Taiz city, according to AFP, citing four security sources.
A local police source told AFP that #Ansarallah also took control of the area's police station, while three Yemeni military sources confirmed the group's control of both the area and the key supply route. Fighting in the area remains ongoing.
The advance follows days of heavy clashes between Ansarallah and #Saudi-backed government forces around Taiz.
